Update on side pain.
Could be unconnected but now in pain when urinating!
Could it be a kidney infection?
If so I have some antibiotics shall I start taking them as they are non penicillin and take longer to work.
I will phone GP later today
Thanks

Sorry Helen, have just seen your post.

Yes, if you are getting burning and stinging when urinating and particularly if you are going more frequently, then there could well be an infection.

Don't take any antibiotics at the moment as they may well affect the result of any urinalysis.

Call your GP but make sure that you are drinking plenty.
