No, seriously, don't. I started feeling bad Monday night, so I took some Tylenol and went to bed. I woke up Tuesday with a 103 fever, and my whole body hurt. I laid in bed hoping it would get better and my boyfriend finally threw me in the car around 9PM. I couldn't even walk I hurt so bad, and after some time in the ER, I had a bottle of Bactrim and some Percocet. I should start to feel better by Thursday (or so they say).
Fast foward to Saturday morning. 4 days of not being able to stand up to get out of bed, puking constantly, and fevers going up to 104.7. I was friggin' cooking myself from the inside out, and I was too hard headed and scared to go back to the hospital. I hadn't eaten anything other than watermelon and popsicles (provided by my partner), and the medicine was not working. I was septic, in a bad way, so they changed my meds and gave me a shot of Demerol. Thank the lord for non-crappy doctors who actually listen.
I'm starting to feel a little bit better, but seriously ya'll, if you have a kidney infection, don't fuck around with it. It's a crappy way to waste a week.
