So on Friday I began with symptoms of a UTI, these got worse over the weekend so I visited the nurse Monday as I have had them before and needed anti biotics, the nurse tested my urine and nothing came up! She said they'd send it away for a more sensitive test and results in 2 days, in the mean time suggested I get a sexual health check as symtoms are simular to UTI!
Meanwhile I'm constantly in discomfort, I can't sleep, I'm going out of my mind! It's not debilitating but it's been 5 days now of soreness, itching, weeing, burning and sleepless nights! 🤒
I went and got a sexual health screening today and was told it would be up to 2 weeks! 😳 I understand they have to send them off but are they really leaving me in this much discomfort for 2 weeks?
I still haven't had the results back from the more sensitive test at the docs which I am hoping to get tomorrow, but I don't know what to do next, I'm going out of my mind! I can't carry on like this for 2 weeks, and that's if it is actually anything from the sexual health screening!
Has anyone had symptoms of UTI before and it not been that? Or struggled with a diagnosis? It's mainly, sore discomfort all the time pretty centralised, and then burning, stinging when weeing! I've had a thrush tablet just in case and have been downing cranberry juice to no avail!
I've recently started sleeping with a new partner, could it just be sex that's done it?
I'm really feeling awful at the minute and feeling like I will never get to the bottom of it!
