they'll see you as an emergency if you go today, I'd say go and get something before you start to wee blood, cos that's not a great experience - especially at 4am

Go now if you can as Dolly has said weeing blood is not a good experience, if you cannot see Dr go to a chemist and ask them what to do until you can see the Dr. In the meantime loads of water and cranberry juice will help.
Hope you get better soon

thanks for advice, didn't go to emergency doctor and luckily by sunday afternoon it was much better. was going to ring gp this morning, but it seems to have cleared up, yipee!
