That's what I'm feeling right now. Bossman and I are both confused as to why it is that I don't recognise I have an UTI until long after it hits the point of 'extreme'. I guess it is from living with chronic pain - you get used to shunting it off to the side until it overwhelms. Which, right now, it is close to doing. Luckily I saved the weird little purple pills that treat the UTI symptoms, which should keep me sane and tear-less until the Urgent Care Clinic opens in the morning.
Nine hours. I am, of course, second-guessing myself about whether or not I ought to risk waiting that long or going in to an emergency room for treatment of what is a non-emergency condition. Or is now. Then again - how fast do these suckers worsen to the point of serious? I don't know. For now I'll take the weird medicine and wait (and stay aware of my symptom levels now that I can perceive them)... why do we never notice these sort of things until the doctor's office is closed for the night?
