Drink lots of water. 8-10 eight ounce glasses a day. There is also some support for drinking cranberry juice so you could replace 3-4 of the glasses of water with cranberry juice. Avoid having sex until you have a firm diagnosis and have been treated as sexual intercourse can make the situation worse.

Drink plenty of water, some cranberry juice, empty your bladder frequently and any OTC ( AZO) medicine if you have burning in urine. Call the ER you went to and ask why they havn't called you for the culture should be back by now. Hope you feel better.
