Hi, I dont really care for miss spelling but whatever,
I’m 16 F, I’m currently laying in bed crying from the pain and it’s 4:19 am.
I really hope this is a period thing.
I’m the middle girl and I’ve mever really asked for much, my older sister 19F and younger 9f have always been the scary ones that run to my parents in a thundering night or when having a bad dream or when sick.
I’ve always proudly of myself never really asked for this things and they’ve appreciated that to a large extent, what’s it gonna do? They gonna magically let it go away? Plus it makes me feel bad when they wake up because they’re both busy in the morning.

Anyways, randomly yesterday I think around 5 pm I was laying down, before hand I walked around my house multiple times because I like it with music too. So I was just laying down in my bed scrolling TikTok and I had a what I think is a bad cramp, it started in my lower belly I think or lower, I thought it was just a sign of my period coming soon and I tried to wait it out,
3 hours later it hurts so bad that I can’t even get up to get dinner, I had texted my mom while she was making it that I was hurting but she was kinda annoyed so I stopped that, I really felt like I had to use the bathroom so I had to slowly get myself up and kinda limp, but as soon as I sat on it another cramp just fricking hits me, at this point it hurts so bad, and I had left my phone in my bed so I start yelling for my younger sister instead, she gets me the pain relievers and a cup of water and I thank her.
Btw yelling hurt too, so I’m in the bathroom and for some stupid reason I can’t go, at all, even releasing gas was long and painful, so I wait until I pee just a little, then I go back to my bed.
Then my mom got concerned when another hour in I’m still in bed and I text her that I can’t join dinner because I was in so much pain, she made my favorite (noodles) she goes to my room and I ask for more pills which she says no because I already took 2 so soon, (it felt like they didn’t work)
So she goes get me a heating pad and lets me use it then leaves, it kinda works a little but more sharp when and keep going in.
My dad comes home and asks me if I’m alright and I say no, he says if sucks but tried to make a gay joke, it was lowkey kinda funny and I laugh but I keep trying to stop because that also hurt.
I’m left alone with my mom coming back to take the heating thing to charge it then coming back and giving it to me.
4 hours later my mom tells me to get up and eat something and the pain monetarily went down so I go downstairs slowly, I eat down cereal because some reason the noodles felt like way too much.
Then everyone is going to bed, I lay down, hoping to sleep the pain away, I can’t sleep so I just play on my phone for awhile then put it down to hope to sleep it off.
I’m twisting in turning in pain because everything is painful, it feels horrible, any movement hurts but eventually I fall asleep only to wake up again now 2 hours later because it hurts so bad.
Now I’m freaking crying and I don’t know what to do.

Help me, can I just take some medication? Do I keep trying to sleep it off? My dad has work at 5:10 should I wait? Please I don’t know what to do

Update, I think?: it’s now 5:20
For a little I just layed in my bed, kinda half yelling for help, nothing happened.
I renelented and did it, had to put my shorts standing uop extremely slowly for like 2 minutes and limped holding the rail to my parents room, my dad was in the garage smoking before having to get ready so I went to my mom and I woke her up telling her.
So anywho, she told me to drink more pills and I tried to tell her about the pain but she went back to sleep, so I limped back to my bathroom and took two more pain relievers and while there my dad come up and asked me if I was alright and I said No and he just told me to take more pills while I was taking pills.
wtf do I do, I guess I’m gonna try to fall asleep and hopefully it calms down despite the large pain

Update 2:
My mom got up after like another hour and went to me asking more questions, she was kinda upset at me why I don’t go sooner 💀
Anywho she’s researching with my dad and told me to try to sleep it off and if it doesn’t go away she’ll call my dad to take me to the ER she said though I really doubt it

Update 3: we went, it’s a UTI, thankfully we caught it. I had thought it was just a really bad period.

Here some things:
An untreated UTI can progress from a simple bladder infection to a fatal systemic condition in anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, but once bacteria reach the bloodstream, death can occur in as little as 12 to 24 hours.

It took 19 hours to get me there, had to pee in a cup which took so long because I couldn’t.

Their gonna me antibiotics for 5 days and run more tests. For anyone who might think you got it here are some syndromes:
Severe lower stomach/cramping
Pain lasting many hours without stopping
Pain so bad you were crying
Pain with movement/walking
Limping because of pain
Laughing/yelling hurting
Trouble using the bathroom
Trouble passing gas
Only peeing a little
Heating pad only helping slightly
Pain medicine not helping much
Couldn’t sleep because of pain
Woke back up from sleep because pain was so severe
Twisting/turning from pain
Eating felt difficult
Pain coming in sharp waves/cramps

Do not wait for it to get worse yall it could kill you.

My mom acknowledged it was wrong for her to shoo me off in the morning and said that normally I don’t have much going on so she hadn’t thought it was a big deal because I’m always alright and take care of myself.
My dad was a little upset that he had to take time off work not gonna lie but then again his not the most emotional person as a veteran, but I still felt bad.
I do admit I have shame asking for things because I’m embarrassed or I hate asking for things.

There goes my record of like 6 or 7 years (lol 6 7)
Without having to go to any type of hospital L.

Thank u guys so much so urging me to go to my parents, I didn’t know it could be deadly and I was just gonna wait it out, I try to update if something else happens but I doubt it, thank u guys 🔥🔥🫶🫶🫶
