There is absolutely no reason to miss work for a uti. If you know it is a uti bc you have had one previously, your doctor can call in antibiotics without even seeing you. If you want to be sure, you can stop by your ob's and a nurse or assistant can check your urine without an appointment typically. Within an hour of taking an antibiotic, you will feel much better. Also, there are always urgent care clinics that can get you antibiotics prescribed at any hour of the night if you are struggling to sleep bc of the pain. You may need to miss an hour or two at most but if you miss a whole day- that is a total cop out. You just want a day off. I certainly would not tell an employer that you are missing an entire day for a UTI. - Jane

What are the symptoms of a urinary infection in people?

Symptoms of Urinary Track Infections or bladder infection are not easy to miss and include a strong urge to urinate that cannot be delayed, which is followed by a sharp pain or burning sensation in the urethra when the urine is released. Most often very little urine is released and the urine that is released may be tinged with blood. The urge to urinate recurs quickly and soreness may occur in the lower abdomen, back, or sides.

Can urinary tract infection cause dementia in older women?

Much to our surprise, my mother in-law experienced this very thing. She was exhibiting increasing confusion, depression and erratic behavior for about a month. It culminated in her beating the windshield of my car with a shovel one morning, and she said that she didn't know why. We of course took her to a crisis center and then to the ER. They did find that she was low in potassium and of all things had a urinary tract infection. The doctor in the ER told us that elderly people especially seem to have a dementia type response to UTIs. I had never heard of this before. The interesting thing is that my co-worker's grandmother experienced a similar state caused by UTIs including walking away from her adult family care home with a picture frame with her family's picture. She told the neighbor who helped her that she was "going to find her family". Another time, she thought she "needed to go home because her parents were going to miss her" - she was in her 90s, and she was surprised to realize that her parents would have to be 120 years old if they were still alive. I have searched and searched for information about this syndrome, and find only brief mentions in articles. I think that more people need to be aware of this.
