Definitely go out and get some Uristat or AZO--that should help you in the meantime. Otherwise, drink plenty of water and/or cranberry juice and go the doctor ASAP.
If I were in your shoes, I would just go home though...it's difficult.

uggh those are the worst... I hope you feel better!
Buy that AZO over the counter if you don't get to the doctor right away (even though you should!) it will make your pee turn orange, but it won't hurt as much!
ETA: If you do buy that, and if you wear contacts, take your contacts out because it can stain your contacts! (It can turn your tears orange too!)
I second AZO!!! It makes your pee Crayola orange, but the stuff really works. Feel better
Careful with this... when you take this, it makes you feel a million times better, but it never really makes the UTI go away completely. It's good if you can't get into the Dr. right away, but don't rely on it completely.
Hope you're sitting near the bathroom... feel better!

The AZO is def a temporary fix until you can get to the MD for some prescription meds

Oh yeah, I probably already said this but definately still go see your doctor! You need antibiotics to clear the infection, this is just to take the pain and discomfort away!

Re: UTI
Thanks girls! I'm going to go to the store and see what I can pick up and after work I already have an appointment to get a urinalysis. So hopefully I'll be feeling better soon! I never knew how uncomfortable this could be!
I just wish I wasn't here at work. I'm so annoyed and everyone that talks to me I just want to yell LEAVE ME ALONE MY VAGINA HURTS! But I think that's be over reacting a bit.

Re: UTI
I'm a teacher and had a UTI once on parent-teacher conference night. I thought I was going to die. No bathroom breaks, and I was in so much pain (and a 101 fever), and I was so mean! Like, 'Yeah, your child doesn't do his homework so be his mother and get his lazy azz away from the Playstation. Next!'
If it is a UTI, you'll be on antibiotics for a week or so. Take them even after you start to feel better (a day and a half-ish), and STAY AWAY from caffeine and spicy food.
Feel better!

Re: UTI
OK my lady friends!! There is something you didnt know about me! I used to be the freaking Queen of UTI'S!! and unless you have had one you have noooooo idea how miserable they are. There is something you need to do that no one has mentioned yet. PEE AFTER SEX!!! AND BEFORE TOO!!!!! This is an ABSOLUTE MUST to avoid a UTI! I had them so bad that i went to a urologist and prescribed me meds. ready for this? i have bactrim for whenever i have sex to prevent a UTI, i have cipro for if i ever get a UTI and i also have a drug called piridium which is a prescription form of AZO or uristat. I have them with me at all times and feel like a drug dealer walking around with them. ITS THE WORST!!!!!!!! My heart really goes out to anyone who gets this or had this. I have not had one in 2 years ( knock on wood) b/c i am seriously obsessed with peeing before and after sex, and I also chug water after sex like a fiend and flush myself out. Its a mood killer sometimes but it has to be done. Hope this helps someone. GOOD LUCK!
