A member asked:
I have a uti. if it turns into a kidney infection or sepsis ill know right? like u don't just drop dead their are major symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There are warnings..: You would develop fever and start to feel quite unwell. With a kidney infection you would also most likely have low back pain. You would not just drop dead. However, if you develop these symptoms, seek help right away.
