Last Monday night I was woken up with awful cramping in the middle of my upper stomach, thought it was trapped wind. That then passed but I had a tender lower abdomen so went to the GP with a urine sample. She said I had a bit of an infection so prescribed me a 3 day course of antibiotics. Was off work as was really drained, and in some discomfort.
Started to feel a bit better today, went for a gentle walk, but when I came back had awful cramping again, this time lower bowel/bladder/pelvis sort of area. Since then I’ve had diarrhoea and am feeling pretty rotten.
I can’t work out if it’s just bad luck that I’ve got a stomach bug or food poisoning so soon after the UTI, or if it’s all the same thing. I could contact the GP again tomorrow but don’t want to waste their time if it’s just a bug. Equally I don’t want to be off work any longer than necessary having already been out for much of last week...
Any words of wisdom?
