I have a UTI, and im on vacation in ITALY what to do?
i developed a UTI two days ago and despite taking cranberry pills its not going away. I have health insurance in USA but i forgot my card and i dont have any european insurance what should i do? im here for another 3 weeks and its ruining my vacation
do they have free clinics here like in america? id guess not since people have health care here.
my boyfriend is a student and does have insurance here, can that help me at all?
Oh, I feel your pain, I’m sorry.
The only thing I can think of doing is checking the American Embassy website:

Here is info on English speaking doctors:

And on general medical care for Americans abroad:

If you can’t find the info, try calling the embassy:
