Kidney Infection. Taken Cipro. Weak, Pain Like Ovaries Are Throbbing. Stones?

I was diagnosed with kidney infection two days ago. I have only taken three Cipro since, but I feel ten times worse today. From only the Nausea and bad back pain, I now am incredibly weak and have developed a pain that feels like my ovaries are throbbing (or general area, somewhat menstrual crampish). The pain isn't excruciating so I don't think it is stones. Sent home with note to go to the ER if it gets worse, but is that only for stones? Should I go due to how weak and absolutely miserable I am??

Hi
Thanks for writing to Health care magic
Renal colic or pain due to renal stones very closely resembles the menstrual pain. It comes and goes. The pain is wave like. It is associated with nausea and sometimes vomitings also if severe. The pain usually radiates from loin to groin. We get exhausted and weak with the pain. Get a KUB x-ray and ultrasound done. Also get the renal parameters tested. Ruleout urine infection. Take plenty of fluids. Consult urologist. Take medication for pain releif.
Hope this helps u
Thanks and regards
