Hi,
Thanks for your history - cramps in lower abdomen for 3 months, gases and frequency of urination.
I would advise you:: Blood- complete blood picture, kidney functions tests, blood sugar fasting and post-lunch,
Urine- routine,microscopy, culture and sensitivity ( before start of antibiotic)
Ultrasonography of abdomen.

This will help to get a diagnosis whether this is intestinal infection of chronic sort like IBS, tuberculosis or Diverticulitis; and urinary tract infection or bladder stone or PID- pelvis inflammatory disease.

Proper diagnosis will lead us to a proper treatment. IF required you may need a Contrast enhanced CT scan of the abdomen.
