Well, my update. Basically inconclusive. U of M didn't even charge me!! They were really nice and took my lack of insurance into consideration the whole time. And they did a pelvic exam. He said everything up there looked and felt fine, maybe it was a cyst that burst with my period. He checked my kidneys, moved me around to make sure it wasn't a muscle, and everything seemed okay. He said it was good I did the home UTI test and stuff. Also to call if it doesn't get better or gets worse. So I don't know anything but I do feel a little better about it. Again was feeling better until I had large baby boy for two days in a row.

Also think I'm starting a mild flare because I'm drinking coffee and not eating. We don't get lunch breaks or any breaks at all. When you have baby boy it means you never even get a chance to eat the (crappy junk) food they supply. I work 71 hours in the next seven days so hopefully I can manage to get food into me. I don't get home until late at night and by then who wants to eat? The grocery store here is quite small and a little pricey so I can't even get decent food even tho I have a job now. It's usually ramen when I do manage to eat. I can't wait to get out of this city.

What do you mean you checked tests on amazon?....and they were negative?

You work in a facility or a school?

I mean I searched for "uti test" on amazon and found out they existed, and bought the best one.

A facility, but the unit I work at is like a home.

Well I'm glad you got to see someone. Even if they didn't come up with anything, it's better to have someone look and say they don't find anything wrong.

I'm not sure if you know this, but you can get UTI tests at CVS or Walgreens as well. I just got a 3 pack yesterday because I suspected a UTI, came out positive ugh! But Azo is a good brand.

I searched but they all showed as being out of stock, so I got the pack off Amazon. I had prime so it came quick.
