Ive experienced inflammatory urination accompanied by minor back shoulder pain. Besides Doctors attention in early stage, it has taken over a year without getting better. During medication I normally feel as better but one week after it returns back as before. Its now about 18months of treatment. What could be my problem. Initially the Dr treated STI and later UTI. Kindly advise

I can not drink coke, Dr Pepper, etc - anything dark or I will feel like I have a uti and my kidneys will hurt. I stopped drinking dark sodas 20 years ago. Last week, I drank a Dr Pepper and I am in pain taking every natural and prescribed medicine I can - I thought I could get away with it after all these years but no.
