A member asked:

I have a doctors appointment in 5 days for a uti (painful urination, frqnt peeing, vaginal odor)but now theres blood in my urine, should i go sooner?

Yes: Sounds like cystitis. I would always suggest an appointment earlier rather than later as waiting could allow a worse infection. You could be nearly over the infection in 5 days with proper treatment.

Definitely yes: You need to have a urinalysis & urine culture now and then start on an antibiotic, which needs to be prescribed by your dr. Covering dr. Or er dr, asap. You should not wait. Dr's scheduling receptionist could not have understood your need for an urgent appointment. Good luck.
