Have Kidney And Bladder Pain. Taking Levaquin, Keflex. Have Lupus. Should I Go To ER?

Hi I have 50 uwbc 5 RBC constant kidney and bladder pain. On 10/30 my uwbc was 10 so I did ten days of 500mg of levaquin. On Saturday it was 16-20uwbc and started 1500 mg of keflex. Today has the 50 plus now added RBC and have been put on cipro. I also have lupus. Do I need to go to the ER for a ct scan or better testing in stead of just constantly changing medications?

Nephrologist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for your query.
We need to do more tests to find out what is going on.
I would recommend that you do a urine c/s and an ultrasound or a CT scan of the kidneys and bladder.
Based on the results, we could plan the further course of action.

Hope this helps
Good luck
