Multiple kidney infections? What does this mean?

Kidney Stone Treatment
I am 23, have 2 children. Don’t know if that makes a difference. But anyhow, since October of 2008, I have had 11 kidney infections and kidney stones once. How many kidney infections can it take for kidney failure, kidney damage…does this necessarily mean I have kidney disease? I am either at the ER or at my doctors office every month. I have taken Bactrim, Levaquin, Amoxicilin, Ciprofloxin…which none have worked. I went last week for my 3rd CT Scan…still waiting on the results. Does anyone have any experience with this? Any info would be greatly appreciated…or you can email me at mysticalstar1986@aol.com.
Thanks alot!

Increase your fluids!!!!
Drink more water to ensure the ‘toxins’ in your kidneys are being flushed through.
The more antibiotics you take, the less effective they become on your body.
Taking a cranberry juice suppliment can help too, but ensuring you have enough water is vital

Only a MD can tell you exact what is causing the infections. However, I suggest you drink plenty of water esp while you are taking those antibiotics, so they can empty you system properly to reduce risk of toxicity.Also, drink cranberry juice the acid in the juice helps reduce urinary tract infections which promotes kidney function. I hope this helps you.
