My question is for my sisster-in -law.
The past few days she has been having this
pain in her lower back on the right side
this morning she said she woke up with the
same pain and now she also has pain in the
front lower part of her stomach. I that
maybe her kiddneys . Do you think it may
be kiddney stones?

I have had a similar pain for years, and
have gone through tests upon tests, with
no success. Doctors say it's too low to
be kidney problems, but had nothing to
suggest. If you find out anything, please
let me know! My pain is not in the front
at all, but mostly in the lower back.
Find my post to read about it and compare.
Drinking unbelievable amounts of water
seems to help in the long run.

Dear busymom:
it most certainly could be her kidney.
I had a lower back pain which got worse
and worse over months. It was worse at
night. I also had right sided abdominal
pain and hip pain. Turned out that I had
a chronic pyelonephritis. Turns out, if
you have a congenital anomoly, I had a
very small right kidney with double
ureters, you are a set up for this. My
doctor couldn't diagnose my problem, since
I had no fever or elevated white count and
no stones on ct. It took a urologist to
find the problem.
I never had pain over my kidney area
(behind the rib cage, mid to lower back)
until after my surgery.
(nephrectomy--kidney removal). Kidneys
are tricky organs. Actually alot of
organs can do this--refer pain to other
areas.

This is exactly what I felt about 2 months
ago and after of going through alot of
pain I went to the hospital and I had a
kidney stone. I would advise going to the
docter to get it removed or for pain
medication because if it is a kidney stone
she'll need the painkillers good luck to
her

Well Here Are Several Options Posted: 10-18-05 21:11pm
Yes it could be her kidneys, tho they are
located high up...........Pain does
radiate. However a host of other things
could be the prob. Ovarin cysts, tumors,
adrenal gland probs,not to mention
colerectol.
She needs a very good catscan and mri with
a much qualified tech to read the
results.
Dont sweat the small stuff and its small
until it has a name.
