Kidney stones or pyelonephritis

Hi momiecat, Pyelonephritis is a kidney infection which is mainly because of the bacteria spread from the bladder. So, everyone should always drink water in order to overcome such problems. Drinking excess of natural toxin cleaner makes our kidneys stronger and stronger. The small infection in kidneys is caused because of the bladder infection. So, firstly bladder infection must be taken care. The symptoms for this infection would be the pain in back and side ways. Burning in urine, fever, vomiting sensation, etc. Severe or recurrent infections may damage kidney, so please consult doctor immediately and take proper treatment. I advice you to me immediately start the treatment and be healthy. Drink lots and lots of water. You have to take 3 to 4 litres per day. Take advice from a professional.

yikes! i have never had one,but my grandmother did. um..she had to change her diet a bit from what i remember..something causes granular "sand" to build up.i know they told her to start drinking more cranberry juice to flush it out.

I want to say that it is your kidney. I am not a doctor and I cannot see you so I cannot tell you what it is, but I bet that it might be kidney stones. Go see a doctor as soon as possible. Kidney stones, like anything else, if left untreated can be fatal.

Just like my husband he had sudden severe pain on his right flank. On ultrsound it was a stone. It is possible that you may have concomittant infection too. Perhaps you sould have an x-ray or ultrasound of your kidneys, ureter and bladder to be able to see if there are stones in your renal system.

I had three kidney stones last year, and have already had one surgery, and two lithotrypsys to remove kidney stones this year, and I have another one on the rise. I have a condition that causes my body to build up more calcium than normal, so I get them all the time, it is aweful.

Kidney stone is beyond what I can adequately describe in words. My last round had me hospitalized twice. First time I was in there I stayed for several days before they could stabilize the pain. It was so bad they started me on morphine. They switched me to something else called Tordol which worked really well and I had no noticeable side effects. Apparently they can't give you stuff like that very long. I left with a box of suppositories and a bottle of something else for emergency crisis type pain. Second visit was much shorter. I came in, they shot me full of Demerol and I passed out just after saying good bye to my wife and kids. They were able to bring me home by the end of the day. I wouldn't wish that kind of pain on my worst enemy.

I have never had kidney stones. I thought at one time I had kidney infection, but I was told it's bladder infection. I am really horrible about drinking water so I know that's why I had bladder problems. After I read your post, I grabbed my water bottle and drank 22 ounces. I have heard how painful they are, I am glad you are feeling better.

My mom has a kidney disease and she gets kidney stones too. In fact, if you read my discussions about my mom, you would already know how she had a stroke and because of the stroke, she can't be put to sleep anymore so the stones she has now or should I say boulders, they can't be removed anymore because she needs to be put in a deep sleep but that can't happen because of the stroke or it'll kill her. She can be put in a twilight sleep only so it's been done to put stints in her kidneys so they'll drain properly. She had kidney infection a few months ago and was in God awful pain!! So maybe your doctor is correct in the diagnosis? Did they do a sonogram or blood work?
