Hello,
Just hoping someone can advise me-all of a sudden I feel like I have a terrible UTI. It started about 4 hours ago but has just got worse and worse. I’m in a lot of pain and need to go pee every 5 mins. I haven’t even tried to go to sleep yet as the pain is just unbearable. I’ve been necking water as much as I can but nothing is helping yet.
Obviously first thing I will call 111 and hope to get an out of hours appointment so I can get some antibiotics down me but any ideas what I can do in the meantime? I’m tempted to get in the bath!
Thanks in advance.

The bath will help.

Try and drink as much water as possible, flush it out

You poor thing, UTIs are awfully uncomfortable 💐

Does it hurt when you pee? Why wait to call 111, call them now x

I was going to but will they see me now? It just feels so strange calling in the middle of the night. I’m also aware other people are asleep in the house so I’m trying to be considerate which is hard when I’m in so much pain. :-(
It’s hurting all the time but much worse when I try and pee, especially afterwards.
I have only ever had one before but they are brutal!
Thank you! Hope your awake for better reasons than me!

Poor you. Have you taken paracetamol? If not, do that, call out of hours and sit in the bath while you wait for a call back.

UTIs can come on fast. Hope you called

My Dd filled in 111 online with uti. Dr called her back and sent antibiotics to chemist to collect. I would contact now to. Get the ball rolling.

Update for you-called 111 and just waiting for a doctor to call me back once they have sent the prescription.
Though its just as bad today-things always seem easier to deal with in the daylight don’t they.
Fingers crossed the call comes soon so I can get the first dose inside me.
Thanks again!
