Bladder infection: Cystitis and other conditons like it are contagious; from that standpoint, it's OK to go to work. But if urinary urgency, frequency, and painful urination (the main symptoms of cystitis) are botherwsome, it's find to stay home. But are you sure cystitis is the only problem? It usually doesn't cause weakness, but if your UTI has spread into the kidneys, it could do so. Ask your doctor if in doubt.
