I recently got a urinary tract infection and went to the health services where they prescribed macrobid. I kept up with the antibiotics very well, but immediately after finishing the pills, I noticed a few symptoms of yeast infection. Nothing severe or anything. I’m not even sure if it was yeast infection. But then I began getting UTI symptoms again. This is just about 2 days after I stop medication. What could be wrong?? This is really bugging me. I was told by a friend that because my UTI symptoms went away and then came back, it probably means my bacteria is NOT drug resistant because if it was, the symptoms would not have stopped… What else can be the problem? Did the discharge from the yeast infection symptoms maybe spread bacteria back and led to another UTI?

And if it IS because the bacteria is now drug resistant, what can doctors do? Prescribe something stronger? I’m worried that eventually it’ll be resistant to all drugs… Please help!
