This one's going to be a little TMI.
I'm just freaking out a little wondering if I should try to go to an acute care clinic tomorrow or wait until Monday and already spazzing about spending MORE money on the doctor's office.
I've posted before about having had E. Coli. I was diagnosed on the 21st, but was sick for about a week before I went to the doctor. I had an E. Coli infection in my stomach, as well as an E. Coli UTI. I don't really understand that, since I read that those are caused by two different strains.
Anyway, I was feeling a little better yesterday and thought I was getting well. Now, though, I feel like I'm having a lot of kidney pain - it feels like when I've had kidney stones in the past.
I was supposed to go this week when I finish my antibiotics to be retested anyway, but thought about skipping it because I'm worried about money between all of this and the therapy. Also, I've missed more work in the last two weeks than I have in years.
I'm really scared that the UTI has gotten even worse. I'm wondering if I should have let her put me in the hospital when she wanted to. I wish this stuff would just go away.
I was sick enough that it stopped my cycle for about three weeks. It started today. Maybe the pain from that is just different because I basically skipped a cycle? I don't know...
