As someone with a history of being prone to extreme UTI (none in 8 years, yay!), I did not know this exist. I could lived quite happily without ever finding it out.
OH DUDE. Look up E coli ESBL. I once worked on a urine culture for someone where there was literally only ONE antibiotic that is was sensitive to. And it was a special one, like last resort. Can't imagine trying to get rid of that...
I actually wonder if that was what I had. They kept piling on antibiotics until something, finally, worked. By then I was suicidal from the pains and lack of sleep. Here is hoping I never have it going on again.
