- need to go to the bathroom every 2
hours
- foamy and very smelly urine
- severe pack pain
- pain in the lower stomach
- nausea
- frequent urgency to urinate sometimes is
substitued by not being able to empty the
bladder at once /takes me usually 4-5
minutes/
- slight itching feeling
My question is :
Are these signes of UTI since I already
had one several months ago or are they
already sympomps of kidney
disease/possible kindey failure?

I think it might be a UTI, do you have
pain urinating?
If you start seeing blood in your urine go
to the dr, those symptoms could be a sign
there is something wrong with your kidney,
but its hard to know what it is for sure.
Either way, i would go to the Dr, and have
them do a test so you can find out sooner
rather than later what it is.
Good luck, and happy turkey day!

I am 17 and I get kidney infections all
the time because of an illness from years
ago. Those are the exact same signs that I
have when I get a kidney infection. Just a
week ago I had both a UTI and a kidney
infection. I have had a child and the pain
from these infections are worse than
labor!

Thanks a lot for all the answers.
I am just back from the doctor, they did a
urine test, and to my utter surprise send
me away saying "you don`t have an
infection! "
Which is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE, since I
have so much pain in my back and waist,
that I haven`t slept for three nights
already. I am going so often to the
bathroom, and the smell of the urine is
really heavy. I have a metal taste in my
mouth, nausea, itchy sensation, either
can`t hold the urine or can`t squeeze a
drop.
I am really confused. Shall I ask for a
second opition. I absolutely can`t believe
there is nothing wrong. And I have already
have one UTI. I am just afraid that the
infection can spread to the kidneys. But
on the other hand - can a test be wrong?
