    If you go to the ER they can't refuse to treat you, if you're in the U.S. I'm not sure how it works in other countries if you're not in the U.S., though. But definitely get that looked at. A kidney infection could result from an untreated UTI, and that's WAY worse than the UTI.

    UTI's can cause preterm labor. You should try to apply for medicade. I'm 19 and thats what i have. It covers all of my prenatal and delivery fees. I would check in to it. I would call the ER and talk to a nurse and see if she thinks you need to be seen again. IF you start cramping you NEED to be seen by a doctor it could be the start of preterm labor!

    you need to go to the ER then, an untreated UTI could get REALLY serious. find a different dr. if you have to.
