Urinary tract infection?
I think I have a UTI. I have all the symptoms, but I have not been to a doctor. I have a prescription for Septra DS, but it is a little over date. I goit it just before I got married just in case and have not used it. I was wondering if it would hurt to take it anyways, just in case.

Don't take expired pills. They'll give you more problems than relief (I know from experience).
Drink a tonne of water and cranberry juice and take a painkiller for the excruciating pain. I've had many UTI's -bad habit of holding my pee- so I completely understand how horrible you feel right now.
But until you get a new prescription filled, boost up your fluid intake. It will help flush out the bacteria that is causing this problem.
Go to the doctor ASAP. Good luck, my friend :)
