I have a uti. I feel like I have to pee constantly and poop. My stomach hurts. I'm sitting on the toilet. Everytime I feel okay and go back upstairs to my room, the feeling comes back. I can't sleep. I have a runny nose. My parents are sleeping. It's 1AM. I have school in the morning. What do I do?

    uti's can be very serious, cranberry juice and go see a doctor.

    This does not all sound like UTI symptoms, but either way if you are sick you need to see a doctor. It can probably wait till morning, so call and make a doctor's appointment as soon as the office opens.

    And it seems like all is dying, and would leave the world to mourn

    Do your parents know how sick you are? If they don't yet, wake them up now and let them know what's going on in case it gets worse, or they notice something you didn't, like a rash or that you're shaking or something. At the very least, they need to know because from what you've said, you should not be in school tomorrow and somebody should call you in sick.

    To get through the night, I recommend you make a makeshift bed near the toilet, so you can maximize your sleep/rest time.

    It's probably not a urinary problem if it's also affecting your bowels. You could have the flu or some stomach virus.

    You should be waking up your parents and scheduling an appointment.

    From recent experience, abdominal pain with those symptoms can mean you have a UTI that has spread and become a relatively serious kidney infection. Hopefully you got your fam to take you to the hospital or to the doctor first thing in the morning.

    Are you sure this is a UTI? What makes you think that?

    If it is, then it sounds like its progressed into a kidney infection. I can speak from experience here, they are NOT fun and you are very sick. You need to see a doctor right away, no question. I found out I had a kidney infection when I thought I just had a weird cold, it was by far the sickest I have ever been. I'm not saying that to scare you, only to let you know this isn't someone to ignore.

    Even if you aren't sure this is a UTI, a seeing a doctor is critical. We're just a bunch of strangers on the internet

    Let your parents know tomorrow morning, tell them you feel terrible and really need to see a doctor.
