Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some infection in kidney or urinary tract. You should go for urine routine and microscopic examination as well as culture and sensitivity test. Ultrasound abdomen is also required. You should also test for blood sugar level. Diabetes is the common cause of recurrent urinary tract infection.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Continue your statins for cholesterol control.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
