You should be able to see an out of hours doctor, who would be able to prescribe anti biotics.

Hope you're feeling better soon.

Our gp has a morning surgery on a saturday morning for just this situation.
We also have a walk-in clinic in the next town.
Have you got any of these?
failing that, can you go to the chemist?

I went to the chemist and got a liquid drink called..ummm i can't remember but it started with CY....and did the trick..it didn't get any worse for a few hours and then started feeling a lot better.

I followed the advice of not eating sweet and sugary foods as the bacteria like that and they will breed more, and to constantly drink water to flush them out.

So if you can't see a doctor today you could try that.

Hope your feeling better soon.
