Kidney Pain?
| Sat, 11-03-2007 - 3:57pm |
Where would kidney pain be, and would it feel like back pain? I'm having an achy feeling at night and in the morning that I think might be my kidney's. I've stopped taking my pravastatin and Diovan because I'm TTC. I've started drinking light Cranberry juice and it actually seems to help a bit.
TIA

Misty,
Kidney pain in the upper middle back and about waist level. If you are TTC it is nothing to play around with and so I recommend that you contact your physician to make sure nothing is wrong. iVillage also has a cystitis board, which my sister co-cl's and she is an expert in kidney and other urinary tract infections, so please check in there for more information. This isn't my speciality area. But I do know that one of the things she will recommend to you is to flush your system with lots of fluids because if there is an infection in there this will help get rid of it. I'll let her explain to you the science behind this.
I do hope you feel better real soon,
