Toddler with urinary pain but no infection

On Aug. 16, 08 I took my 3yr old daughter in because she said her pee hurts. After doing a urinalysis it showed that she had an elevated wbc so they put her on amoxicillen she remained on that for 10 days. On the 7th day of the amox. she went back to have a repeat urinalysis when those test results came back it showed that the amox. wasn’t working. So the Dr. prescribed Septra on Aug.25th. She remained on that for 10 days. On the fourth day off the Septra the “bad pee” was back. We went back to the dr. Urinalisys showed slightly elevated wbc and traces of blood. She went back on Septra. On the 4th day the pain was still there so I took her back and and the urinalisys showed nothing. So we went home hoping the pain would go away. Day 6 and 7 her pee was good.

Today is the 8th day and the pain is worse than ever. She cried for over 15 min. before she went and the pain subsided. I took her back to the dr. and another clean urinalisys. Her dr. put her on nystatin even though she shows no signs of a yeast infection and ditropan for possible spasms. She’s taken one dose but the pain is still comes when she’s got to go(not sure how ditropan works) They are trying to get her scheduled for a vcug and a renal ultrasound but the docs are booked. What can I do to make her feel better? What could be wrong?

Drank cranberry and water throughout.
