I could have kidney disease...
13 years ago
or something along those lines. I had severe pre eclampsia when I was pregnant, I even set hospital records. We asked the doctors at that time if it would have any long term effects and they said that my kidneys were working fine (this was after I had the baby and my kidneys were starting to work again but just the day before that my pee looked like pepsi) and they didn't say anything about the fact that THEY COULD BE DAMAGED. Ever since then I've been getting UTIs preeetty often. This is the worst one I've ever had and usually I can get them to go away without having to go to the doctor. It's been over a week and it's getting worse. My doctor's office doesn't open until Monday and even then my appointment won't be for another week or so from after I call. I called the ER and they said not to come in until I was peeing blood and wait till Monday to schedule an appt with my doctor (yes, I know they can't deny me service if I go in).
There's also a few other symptoms I'm having. You know how when you drink a lot of fluids you have to pee pretty soon after? Well it's taking my body hours to process it.
On top of that we don't have ANY money and we're pretty sure the heroin addicts next door stole our silverware. Yes. Our SILVERWARE of all things.
So, needless to say, things are going to be delayed until I get to see a urologist. ;A;

I wish you the best Riley.
Just hold tight, try to drink as much water as you can, I know you hate it, so do I, also try your absolute best to buy cranberry juice and drink the shit out of that. Trust me, I had a really bad kidney infection and it spread to my bladder when I was about 10 years old, I was in the hospital for 2 weeks, and then had a procedure done after that where they sedated me and litterally went up in my bladder and flushed it out with antibiotics and things of that nature.
The cranberry juice will help your kidneys tremendously and the water will flush out your urethra. I'm not really sure if they make an over-the-counter anti-biotic, but if they do it'd be really good to get that, if you can't get to the doctor soon.
Seriously, trust me on this: cranberry juice, and water, drink NOTHING else until you see the doctor, please please. <3
