Hello. I am very young, infact I am a 12year old. I am diagnosed with uti yesterday. I had flank pain and my mom drove me to the hospital. I told her the symptoms i’ve been getting such as burning pain during peeing. I sweat more than I drink and I always dont go to the bathroom. 

I did urinalysis and it had RBC in it. The thing is my menstrual period comes in the first week of a month which is nearby. The doctor said something about the normal uti which is about 1-5 while my results were 10-12.

Now, I pee and I see visible blood. The antibiotics might have caused this or the kidney did something.

I feel like this is kidney stones BUT the doctor said it was just UTI. They found no crystals in my pee.

I am crying and panicking, what should I do? I dont want to tell my mom without being sure because she also panics fast. Someone help please.

      I told her and she asked if it was coming from my urine OR my vagina. Turns out I was just having my period, hahaha! She also panicked but I guess like mother like daughter!

    Is there a way to visit the emergency room.  If there is blood they will run more tests quickly and will give you medication to ease your pain.  I think you should tell your mom.

      Turns out i was over reacting and was having my period. I found out when I told my mom and it was very suspicious since it was painless. Thank you for your concern smile
