I have been having a lot of pain in my left abdomen and fevers on and off for about two weeks now. Not intense pain, but constant and aggravating. In order to figure out the cause, I have been to the doctors' office several times and had some ultrasounds and other tests done. I have a cyst on my left ovary, but it was nothing to be concerned with at this point. Unfortunately, no one could find the cause of my constant pain. I was beginning to think that maybe I was imagining the pain? Not really.
Two days ago, my pain increased and moved into my back. At this point, I knew that I had kidney stones AGAIN.
Good news~I went to get a CT scan today and the doctor found multiple stones in my left kidney and one in my pelvic area causing the pain in both areas. All appear to be "on the move".
Bad news~After passing stones on four other occasions, I know that these stones are going to cause severe pain any day, any moment. The big question will be~can I pass these stones on my own, or will I need to go to the hospital? Either way, I am not super excited.

Yuck- kidney stones! I wish they could just *blast* 'em for you! Good luck...:)
So sorry to hear about your struggles! You would think being in the 21st century we would be better able to diagnose these things.
Sending hugs XXXXXXXX
