Brief Answer:
Question so that I can answer

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

Was your UTI diagnosed by a culture or just based on symptoms?

Is the leakage problem new? When did it start?

How long ago did you finish the antibiotic and what was the name of the antibiotic?

Is the blood definitely in the urine or could it be from the vagina?

I'll write my thoughts on this after I hear back with more information - thanks.
