Last week I travelled for Thanksgiving. Wednesday night I had to pee several times, rather urgently feeling. Minimal urine and it was concentrated. When I was done I felt a burning sensation and noticed a bit of blood tinge on the TP.

If I'd have had sex recently I'd have pegged it as a urinary tract infection.

Anywho. I picked up on my fluids and the frequency and urgency decreased.

By Sunday I still had somewhat concentrated urine. That evening I started feeling a "knot" just under my right shoulder blade area. Now this is where I carry my stress so my friend did some massaging and it felt better.

All week long I've been fighting the knot and my urine is becoming more concentrated again.

I'm having hot flashes from hell. I had these prior to surgery too.

Today I started noticing an increased fatigue feeling up the left side of my spine.

No problems with eating or drinking.

So in a nutshell ...

concentrated urine
knot under right shoulder blade
hot flashes from hell
fatigued muscles left side of mid back

So, any thoughts?

1) UTI
2) pyelitis
3) Kideny stone.
In any case, talk to your dr ASAP. No second guessing.

Thanks Doc. Advice followed.

I have a UTI and dehydration.

Fluids, antibiotics and anti spasmotics to make me pee funny colors and I'm good as new.

I think UTIs are going around. I came home from a weekend of traveling and brought one with me. Haven't had one in 25?30? years..?? something is going around.
Glad you are feeling better.

This is only the second UTI in my life with the first one occurring over 20 years ago. I'd like to go a lifetime without having another one.

Meds have kicked in and I feel good as new!
