Thank you, I am recovering from a UTI and Kidney infesction ( it was an E coli infection). I am a 69 year old lady and haven t ever been so unwell. I was in hospital for 8 days. I have been home a week and still on antibiotics. I am still very tired, despite sleeping for about 10 hours at night , I still need a nap in the afternoon. Is this normal? If so, how long can it go on for. Regards Yvonne.
Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is possible that you might feel weak and tired when recovering from UTI. It is important that you Chat Doctor.  Also, please take healthy home cooked foods and complete the course of antibiotics. Please make sure your infection is completely treated and there is no recurrent infection. This might stay for a week or two, and soon you should be alright. Any fever or burning urination might indicate a reinfection with necessary change of antibiotics after a repeat urine culture and sensitivity test.
