My uti is killing me

I've went to the ER about 2weeks for bleeding alittle but turned out to be a uti. I'm taking my meds but I'm having sharp pain in my lower right side of my back and it goes to my knee which it gives out. I have no abdomen pain the baby is growing. Could I have kindney stones?

Definitely sounds like your siatic nerve, I suffer from kidney stones and things like that and believe me kidney stones are equal to giving birth on the pain scale. And also I've never had my leg hurt due to kidney stones.

It sounds more like your sciatic nerve is being pinched. I don't know how far along you are but my baby will sit on my nerve and I'll have a wonderfully painful time getting about until she moves off it....

I don't believe kidney stones would be able to affect the nerve. You'd best hope for the nerve to be temporarily pinched rather than kidney stones which I've been told by my friends is worse than child birth... Which she had to pass a few days before giving birth.
