These are the Test of my mom who is 81 years old. She has been having problems peeing with the burning and the discoloration of the pee. The doctor has been giving her antibiotics for the last 3 months but it dosn't go away.
now she did another culture last week and this is the results i have sent you. What do you think she should do.
The doctor has not really come up with a solution to help or solve this. She does have congestive heart failure and weights about 125 pounds. thank you

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that she might be having pelvic inflamatory disease, anemia, and lack of resistance probably due to the age.
I advise you to consult a gynecologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have an M.R.I. for diagnosis.
The result was not that of the culture and sensitivity. In culture the there will be the types of organisms grown, and the antibiotics sensitive to those organisms in order of preference.Those antibiotics of the 1st preference have the power full effect against the bacteria.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. thank you.
