so worried...could this become fatal? is it already fatal?

okay if you read my past questions you see that I was pregnant and lost the baby but still continue to have a lot of pain

well I learned that the medication I had been prescribed (to cure a UTI that had spread to my kidneys) didnt cure my kidney infection and I also learned that that is what most likely caused me to misscarry.

well how fast can a kidney infection like become really bad?? I have had back pain for about a month now (give or take) but I think some of that was from the pregnancy. I lost the baby about two weeks ago(so I assume I had the kidney infection then) and I still continue to have horrible back pain and pains in other places that I now know can be caused by a kidney infection

anyways does anyone know how fast this becomes bad? Is it already bad? I had a doctors appointment in a few days but is that fast enough?? If you need any clearification on the time line just ask

Answer #1

It can become bad in one or two days, very fast. You need to go back to your doctor again. Also AFTER getting well, you should research dietary methods to help prevent bladder and kidney infections.

Answer #2

If you have decent health insurance that doesn’t charge too much for a copay, go to the hospital now. If they try to get your copay out of you say you don’t have any money and to bill you. (it is ILLEGAL for them to not treat you, even if you cannot pay).

Ask if you can see your doctor as a walk in because it’s a bit of an emergency.
