Im so depressed right now..i have been sick since the beginning of october..it started with extreme weakness .shortness of breath...then after a week or so i started to feel very confused ..like how you feel after when you start to drink ..dizziness n confusion 24/7 was making me crazy..my parents thought it was because of my cellphone at night habits..i got my blood tests (cbc) done which shown my leukocytes higher but doc said it was normal..my thyroid was in control as well..then i got ultrasound n it came back normal..in between i had so many weird symptoms.. like pain in joints..random rashes on breasts..discoloration on stomach..then finally i sent my urine sample and was diagnosed with uti ..im on antibiotics from 3 days but i still have the confusion feeling ..it gets worse at night..im afraid if something else is happening to me sad some help wud give me relief..does anybody else feel like that in uti

    I do know it causes confusion in elderly people. Perhaps that could be because they leave it so long.

    You possibly need a different type of antibiotic. I have had 3 !

    Go back to your doctor
