Glad it was helpful! Thank you for your feedback!!
Cant hear it
Excellent
exactly how does a UTI cause confusion?? How does it affect the brain?? I am a Medical Coder for the ER, many many people of all ages with UTI's. they normally put them on Keflex
I rarely have a fever with my recurring UTI's rarely have burning, but, the UA is positive for UTI. I had a provider tell me that cystitis is the exact same thing as a UTI - what do you say? I do have brain fog or "confusion", cloudy urine, smelly urine. I tell the providers Not to put me on antibiotics b/c of my GI history but they will not listen, I had all the symptoms of C Diff and had to run more tests, which costs me more money.
This was very helpful. Thank you

I really Appreciate your Good work Dr Ogoh on KZread, Thanks for Curing my #uti sickness . No more pains and sleepless nightmares, thanks #drogoh ✌.
I had a surgery to remove my ovary and complications. Then I had a UTI. They cause confusion.
If an elderly person develops sudden confusion and delirium, will these symptoms go away once the UTI is treated?

Sometimes we have seen symptoms go away. However, this is not always the case. Other times an individual's disease may be progressing and they could be entering a new plateau or phase of their dementia/disease. It's always good to work with a physician who has a good understanding or a focus on geriatric care.

@@KrisChana Not sure what You hearing that sounds clear to You. Lets go to 0:08 seconds in? That sounds good on Your end? I have on a headset and listened at 100 volume. At little under 1:40 when "Dr. sorry didn't catch the name" starts his presentation it get's even worst. Please Don't waste my time asking for feed back if You are unwilling to put Your time into listening to it.

I am not sure why. We have tested it on our end multiple times and it comes through properly. I am not sure exactly why others are having problems with it but I appreciate your feedback. Technology can be weird sometimes.
