Brief Answer:
Urinary tract infection suspected
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I think that your symptoms are related to a urinary tract infection.
You should do some examinations to confirm this diagnose :
-a urinalysis
-a blood test
-a urine culture due to the fact that this situation is repeated
Meanwhile, I suggest you to:
-Take control over your diabetes
-Drink water, also cranberry juice can help.
-Avoid coffee, alcohol
-Take painkillers for the pain such as Ibuprofen
Eventually, you should take prescripted antibiotics if this diagnose is confirmed by the examinations.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care
Regards,
