Accepted Answer

Pyelonephritis: Kidney infections at your age are commonly due to passage of infectious organisms up the ureter into your kidney which sounds like it has happened.  This is a serious issue and may require consultation with a urologist for improved treatment.  This is not something you want to wait out - have your currently treating doctor recommend a specialist for you.
