very sick hamster

Hello everyone,

I have a two year old female sy. For about a month I have noticed a very strong smell coming from her cage. I didn't think to much of it, until I heard this squeek every time she pees. I took her to the vet ( I just couldn't stand to see her in pain). He told me to give her this antibiotic two drops twice a day for a week. Its been two days and no change still squeeks in pain as she pees. He also told me I can put her down if she's in so much pain. When shes not peeing shes fine. Still eatting well wanting to come out. Her stomach is a little swollen. Kidney stone maybe? Just if anybody can tell me anything.
Thanks alot
PS she is alone in her cage.

did you get it checked for wet tail? Thats a really common diease and it sounds kind of like the symptoms. If she has it try giving her razberry leaves. It supposed to help.
