UTI? HELP!

On Saturday I started to get pain in my pelvic area. By Sunday it turned into a stabbing pain in my vagina. I feel like I’m being stabbed or even like a sharp pain is shooting up me. I went to urgent care on Monday and they couldn’t read my urine because I took azo and sent it for a culture. They prescribed me Bactrim. Got sick from Bactrim and switched to cipro. Asked for pain meds as azo and pyridium aren’t helping. They told me that they don’t give pain meds for utis. I am still in pain today, Thursday. Aren’t I supposed to feel some type of relief by now? No pain meds are helping. I called my doctor asking if they could prescribe me anything and she must’ve laughed in my face because she said to use a heating pad. Is this a uti or could it be something else? Should I go see my doctor again?

    On a pain scale how bad is it? are you in severe pain? burning?  You should go back to your doctor's or the emergency to get another urine sample done. There's also uti strips you can buy to see if it's a UTI. In the mean time for pain, try advil liquid gels for the pain. You need to figure out if it's a UTI or not.

      It’s constant pain. Like one second i feel the stabbing pressure another second it’s gone then it comes back. I have tried all over the counter medications. Urgent care called and stated that the urine sample was clean, no uti.
