Hi! I am a 32 y.o. male suffering from painful urination followed by some back pain and I am also seeing sediment in my urine as well. Presented myself to local E.D. and was first diagnosed with a urinary tract infection. Was given Ciprofloaxcin @ 500 mg 2x per day for 7 days. I told to drink plenty of fluids as well. Three nights later presented back to local E.D. with almost same symptoms as before but noticed more sediment in urine. Doctor performed CBC, CMP and a CT scan of abdominal area without contrast. Nothing found on CT scan and all blood work was normal too. My question, could this in fact be just a major urinary tract infection? My wife suffers from chronic UTI and I have had symptoms on and off for at least two months. I am planning on following up with a urologist as well. Thanks!
