Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Fatigue When Recovering From Kidney Infection

Brief Answer:
Get Renal function tests to evaluate adequacy of antibiotic therapy.
Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,
I understand your concern.
Kidney infections can cause persistent symptoms and take time to resolve.
But since you have on antibiotics ,its important that you look for biochemical resolution of symptoms.
For this I advise you to get a complete renal profile testing.
This includes complete urine examination as well.
I also advise you to get an ultrasound abdomen.
Based on the test results,further measures can be taken.
Post your further queries if any,
Thank you.
