I have been battling UTI's for months now on and of. I have tried all the usual meds and now nothing is working. I started a homeopathic tincture that worked for about a day and now it's back. Any feedback? Blessings, Just Jan

Did your dr. do a culture & sensitivity test? The sensitivity test lets them know which abx to use.
My PCP wanted to start me on abx right away one time, so he prescribed a broad spectrum abx. A week later I got a call that it wasn't sensitive to that abx and was prescribed one that was.
So, as you can see some abx won't work, they need to test the culture to find one that will.
Also, my Uro had me do "clear" testing. It was just another C&S 10 days after finishing abx to make sure it got all of the infection.
I get them so frequently that she now has me testing every month.

Has a Dr found a bacteriological source for the UTI?

I'm getting them more frequently as well. No James. I go back to LLMD on Friday so we shall see what he says. He switched me to a sulphur anbx this last time to see if that would work. Thanks. Blessings, Just Jan
