Contagious UTI?

About a week ago I had excruciating stomach ache in my lower belly, as well as 'javelin arse' and pain when I peed. I sometimes get a bit of irritation around TOTM so thought it was due to that, but I was also peeing constantly for a few days so decided to go and get checked out for a UTI.

A urine dip test showed something in my pee, so I've been prescribed Trimethropim which is helping. Only thing is, today DP has come down with the same symptoms of painful peeing and stomach ache. We haven't been 'intimate' for over a month due to him working away then TOTM and me having irritation down there, so it seems weird if I've passed something on to him. Any ideas - could it be a general viral bug with that as the side effects?

A simple UTI should not be contagious. If you've not both had a sexual health check-up since becoming monogamous then I would start at your local GUM clinic...

We did all that years ago when we first started dating, so that shouldn't be an issue. I'm thinking side effect of a bug may be more likely - DP also seems to have some kind of stomach issue judging by the bloating and huge volume of gas he's managed to produce this evening! I had a day last week of feeling very dizzy and generally felt run down
