Get urinalysis by Dr: Positiv nitrite or leucocyte esterase reaction would confirm possible UTI & if positive urine should be cultured. This would identify bacteria responsible and sensitivities would would indicate which antibiotics would be effective. However you could be started on an antibiotic as soon as the urine specimen for culture has been taken. Suggest you dio this promptly.
