On Sunday 16th Feb I woke with pain in lower abdomen, urge to pee frequently, aches and pains. Saw online GP and got prescription for a UTI. This did not work by Wednesday so I saw my own GP in person and she gave me Keflex twice a day x 5 days. I felt a little better Fri and Sat but Sunday I woke 5am with all symptoms back. Attended a GP on call and she gave me Keflex 3 a day for another 3 days. Caught up with my own GP on Monday and labs were clear, urine dip test was clear but I still felt horrible, so she suggested I stick with the 3 days of Keflex and if not feeling better, to attend A&E for an ultrasound and blood tests.
So today I feel like the UTI symptoms have mostly cleared (still some urgency with peeing), but I have other symptoms that are weirding me out.
Numbness across my lower abdomen and in lower back. Tenderness and bloating across lower abdomen, from hip to hip. Achy all over, pains in abdomen that prevented me from sleeping much and painkillers not resolving it (Ibuprofen, paracetamol, codeine). Also numbness in my left arm and tingling in my fingers. Don't feel great but I haven't been sleeping so I am pretty wrecked. No fever at any point in this whole saga.
Any thoughts on what on earth these latest symptoms could relate to? Google/ AI is not helping. I could go to A&E but I would potentially be there for a day or 2.
