Hi Anon,

Welcome to EmpowHER.  You did the right thing by stopping it, since you are having very bad symptoms.  But, it's important to let your doctor know.  He will be able to prescribe another antibiotic that will not cause so many bad side effects.  It's important to take the recommended full course of antibiotic in order to clear the UTI.

Best,

Daisy
