urinary tract infection
"I had been having abdominal and pelvic pain for over three weeks thinking that it was menstrual related.  Once my cycle was over I noticed that there was blood in my urine and immediately knew that it was a urinary tract and or bladder infection.  I got a prescription for amoxicillin and within an hour of taking the first dose which was two pills my pain had subsided from an 8 to a 5 on a scale of 1 to 10.  Several hours later I was immediately feeling back to myself and ready to get out and start living again. The pain of the bladder infection or urinary tract infection had literally kept me in the house with a heating pad on for three weeks almost a month.  Make sure that you do take the full Rx for the infection  or it could come back."
