I went to the doctors this morning after suffering with cystitis for a couple of weeks (thinking it would go away by itself) but yesterday started to get pain in my lower back on the right hand side. I didn't actually see a doctor just receptionist who took my urine sample and called me back with a prescription for a 3 day course of trimethoprim 200mg. I'm hoping they didn't just hear "cystitis" and treat me for that and ignore the kidney pain symptoms. Has anyone had luck with trimethoprim for kidney infections or is it just for UTIs?
