So i posted yesterday that i had been unwell with diahrea and nausea, stomach pain and hot flashes. On Friday i was so bad i went to the walk in centre who sent me to a and e .

A and e did a chest xray and kidney and liver blood tests and said that they basically didnt know and it may be gallstones.

since then i have had more pain movimg into my back and sides and burning pain low in my hips. I did dip my wee this morning with a dipstick my friend gave me and it showed 3+ leukocytes.

i have been feeling sick and off food - im struggling to eat even a few mouthfuls

the pain is constant but more like a constant ache rather than stabbing pain

i am feeling more like this is a uti or something now - but tbh i am feeling pretty unwell with it. Shaky, sweaty etc

i sent an e consult to my gp first thing and im just waiting for some kind of response.

has anyone has these symptoms with a uti before?

i have had utis before but the stomach issues etc are new for me.

I've never had a UTI with symptoms like that, it's mostly feeling an urgency to wee and stinging, pain on going. I've had a fever with it but nothing like you describe.

If you just did the econsult today I wouldn’t expect a phone call today! They’ll probably call in a couple of days to ask you to drop off a sample
