So for the last couple of days I've had some very mild pain in my back around my lower ribs/above hips. Initially thought it was muscular but then yesterday I was urinating a lot (decent amount each time) and felt a bit nauseated.
Went to GP this morning who tested a sample, said it was a possible infection but not definite and gave me 3 day course of Trimethoprim and sent sample to lab.
I'm a bit confused because whenever I've had a UTI in the past I've had burning and feeling like I need to go constantly, no back pain or nausea.
None of this this time, just feel a bit crap and under the weather. If it wasn't for the on and off back ache I wouldn't have gone to gp at all.
Has anyone had a UTI like this before? I have some health anxiety anyway and now I'm scared that I have a kidney infection. GP said I can take antibiotics if I feel it's getting worse or hold off until results are back on Monday. I'm inclined to start them, but should I if it's not a definite infection?!
