Me again now with a UTI

[rainbowbaby2]

Ok so I think I have a UTI... I can feel one coming on. Niggly feeling down below but it's not stinging when I pee which is strange?
I've got awful back and lower abdo pain so using a hot water bottle. Trying to drink lots of water. Do you think it's worth calling 111 tonight or wait until tomorrow? I haven't had one in years! I'd forgotten how rotten they are and it's not even hurting when I pee as of yet.

Hi @rainbowbaby2 I'm well versed in UTIs, as I've had 7 positive cultures in less than six months. Not once have I ever had stinging. My main symptoms are abdominal pain, weeing more (especially at night), a deep ache in my back, and just generally feeling a bit bleh. UTIs can get nasty quickly, so I would ring 111 if I were you.

You can get the antibiotics from a pharmacist now. I did this for dd last weekend. You can do it online with Boots now and then pick the prescription up when they open on a Sunday.

(Just to clarify dd is an adult! Showed her the boots website and she sorted it all out and I went to pick it up for her as she was feeling crap!)
