2 weeks after biopsies ... prostatitis

User

Two weeks after having 14 prostate biopsies, I  started having symptoms of a uti or prostatitis ... I did have a bout of prostatitis 12 years ago so remembered the symptoms. There was no evidence of uti in urine but GP put me on 7 days of 500mg of clarithromycin, twice a day (I am allergic to penicillin). The 7 days was up today and I am now starting to experience pain and the urge to pee again.


What should I do? Should I approach my consultant's team for advice or go back to my GP? Has anyone else experienced this and if so what worked? 


By the way? I am not getting the result of my  biopsies for another two weeks.
