Am I overreacting? Have you any advice to help my four years old daughter until the GP get back to us?

My four years old daughter goes to nursery 9 am to 3:30 pm then to after school sessions 3:30 pm to 6 pm. My next door neighbour brought her in the morning and collected her in the evening this week while I recover nasty gastritis. However, this evening, he was informed my daughter has been complaining she was in pain when passing urine. He called me before leaving the school to tell me. I called our surgery straight away, but despite being promised a doctor will call back before 6:30 pm. No call was made, and I was already informed there is no appointment left for tomorrow. I carried a urinary test on a urine sample, and my daughter has a very nasty infection. She is in pain, and all I could do was to give her hot Himalayan salt bath, Neurofen, cranberry juice and vitamin C fruits (Strawberries, clementines), plenty water and taking her to the toilet every 30 minutes checking for blood in her urine since the urine test showed blood is present.
I am very upset with her school not calling me before 6 pm to inform me of my daughter's discomfort and pain.

Your replies on here are the same as on the Nurseries one , advice and urging you to call 111. Hope she's better soon anyway

Thank everyone. I called our surgery at 8 am. She was seen by a doctor at 9:20 am. I was assured I did the right thing by the consultant you saw us. She has very nasty UTI as suspected and fever. Samples are being sent to the laboratory to identify the bacteria attacking her. However, should she had been seen day time yesterday her urine sample test results would have been available before the weekend. My daughter is on antibiotics, but since we won't know until Monday what bacteria is attacking her, there is not guaranty the antibiotics will work. Therefore she may worsen in the next 24-48 hours, and I will need to take her to the emergencies. Once the laboratory results are back, we will know if the antibiotics need to be changed or not, and if she needs further test and CT Scan. She will need to be checked out in 3 weeks time. The reason why I am upset is that they said the had been complaining of pain EVERY TIME she was passing urine. Every time means more than twice, therefore, more than an hour.

@ longdiling I know it wasn't intentional. I posted first in the nursery discussion and then realise I should have posted in the children health discussion. It was an innocent mistake. :-)

I know that but you said in your other thread that the Nurseries one was full of replies by defensive nursery workers and this one was really helpful. But that's bollocks. They're both the same.

If you didn't call your GP til 5.50 then a urine sample wouldn't have gone off same day. Glad she got seen.

Thank you, everyone. smile
May I clarify that I am not complaining about my daughter's nursery. It isn't their fault she has an infection. I am just concerned that they were aware she was complaining of pain every time she passed urine and never called me. but waited until her collection time to tell us. I have already discussed the issue with her school. I appreciate your advice.
If you had seen the reaction on the face of our GP when she did her own strip test you would know that I am not overreacting. Her nitrates level are over the roof.
As for not calling 111 last night: my daughter was fast asleep and slept all the way through to 8 am.
As for the previous night, my daughter she never complained of tummy aches.
She is on Trimethoprim 50mg/5ml oral suspension. 5ml spoon twice a day.
Once again thank you. Good night.
