I still have Pid?

So the swabs were most likely for stds and they take a few days to get results which they should call you for if positive and they usually treat anyway before you leave if they are testing for them. Still call back for results in a few days if you don’t hear because partners should be treated one of the many reasons to wear protection.

However, the ER is only their to make sure you are not dying. They will usually run some blood work, urine for pregnancy and do an exam. If they are discharging you that’s a good thing. Your gynecologist should be working you up for less serious reasons you are having these symptoms.

Ibuprofen is best for pain because the uterus is usually prostaglandin mediated pain and ibuprofen inhibits prostaglandins. Also if it is true you are having this reoccur-ant pid your partner should be tested because you could be getting cured and just getting reinfected every time during relations
