Could this have been Kidney Stones?
I’m a 16 year old female.
Friday of last week, I started having the constant urge to urinate. And, when I did it was barely anything at all. When I woke up on Saturday, my back was in so much pain. So, I went to the store and bought Azo thinking it was a Urinary Tract infection.
There’s was blood in my urine, and I even urinated STRAIGHT blood for about a day.
My back pain kept becoming worse (specifically on the right side ) along with nausea, diarrhea, loss of appetite, fever, chills, fatigue, a bloated, sick queasy feeling. Just all round ill feeling.
I went to the doctor on Tuesday, the gave me a prescription to take for 10 days thinking it was a UTI, as I did. They called a few days later, saying it wasn’t. I have to go back and give a urine specimen after I finish my meds.
Please note:
All of my symptoms are now gone. I feel completely normal, besides being constipated.

Very possible but unlikely. Most 1st kidney stones puts you literally in the floor. But just in case, drink lots of water 64oz a day. Cut down on all teas, and Mountain Dew. Drink lots of lemonade.
