I was diagnosed with a kidney infection four days ago and have been on Auro-Cefuroxime. The doctor at the hospital told me that my white blood cell count isn t elevated, so it seems like my body isn t trying to fight the infection. I have been in imense pain and have been feeling very nauseated over the past week. Should I go back to the hospital to have my system flushed through an I.V.? What should I do?
