I am going to the Doctors, I am 95% sure Ihave a UTI, but I am worried about testing for it. How long does it take to find out if I have UTI? I would like to get Antibotics asap because I can not handle the feeling anymore and I am worried incase testing etc will take a few days.So my question is, how long will it take for the Doctor to determind if I have a UTI?

If your doctor's office has a lab there, you should be able to get the results while you wait. Drink lots of cranberry juice and water to help flush out your system.

Blueberries are very good for a UTI too. Your doctor will give you a urine test and most likely will get the results while you wait. Feel better!
