I had Almost exact symptoms last year and was sent home from hospital and told it was not an issue for A&E.  I actually had a damaged uretha caused by an abscess burstingabove my left ovary which caused sepsis.  I was extremely ill and ended up having a uretal stent for the past year and a total abdominal hysterectomy including ovaries in May of this year.  Keep pestering the doctor!!

Have your creatinine and BUN checked. If the infection is persistent, you should be admitted. Taking strong antibiotics might further hurt your kidneys.
