Not sure if the last one went through.

Sorry, for not believing some of you about Bacteria and E.Coli. Well,
it turns out that I do in fact have "Escherichia Coli." I had like 5
urinalysis/cultures before, none of which discovered it. This last one
said "susceptibility listed below.... 10,000-50,000 organisms/ml,
ESCHERICHIA COLI".

But the urinalysis part says Bacteria NONE.

I feel really stupid. WebMaster??? What do you think of this. I
thought infections required 10^5 organisms/colonies.

My PCP said its no big deal. He said that its not considered a
pathogen. But he gave me 14 days of cipro, 500mg. I have already
ordered 2 more cultures to see if it shows up, or to see if it was
some contaminant. Is E-Coli usually resistant to Tetracyclines?
