Just after Christmas I stated to feel a "burning" sensation in lower left abdomen that would come and go ... mainly in the evening... Then 2 weeks ago it got considerably worse and I woke up with very bad diarrhea, (I have diverticulitis) a trip to the GP and home I came with 2 lots of anti-biotics, I lot for diverticluitis and another 3 day course for a uti as she discovered some micro blood in the specimen? The left abdo/flank pain is now intermittent but then I started to feel sickly/feverish, return visit to the GP and he found white blood cells and some thing else? re or de??? He has put me on a longer course of amoxicillan and sent a wee sample of for culture... Now stupidly I have spent all day looking up said symptoms and have convinced myself I have something nasty and serious, as I have no pain at all when passing urine, and pass a normal amount each time though I do feel the need to go all the time.

with the symptoms you listed i would say you probably have a bladder infection which is the starting stages of a UTI more pain based in the abdomen and white and red blood cells in the urine
Sounds like an inflamed bladder. My mother left her UTI for so long, her bladder was pushing out her stomach; appearing as though she had gained a couple pounds.
as said above , i think its bladder infection
definitely the beginning of a UTI
Well the sample came back clear, but the abdo pain got worse. GP sent me to the surgical assesment ward of our local hospital where they done an ultra sound scan, all clear. Bloods all okay. Though again urine showed traces of blood. The consultant thought it was an ibs flare up that had aggravated the bladder? Now waiting for out patient appts.The pain is intermittent, in that I can go for a couple of days without it, then boom!! back it comes, along with the urge to wee more though not painful....low back pain to... ( sorry to whinge)
