Kidney pain

[trickandcontrol3]

I've been having kidney pain just about every day for the pat couple of months. I have been to the ER countless times and have had cat scans and xrays that all came out clear. I get UA's done every couple of weeks and sometimes they are clear, others time I will have blood in it and my urine is acidic. The docotrs keep telling me the same thing, that there is nothing wrong with me...but I hurt all the time!! This is really stressing me out, if there is anyone that knows whats going on, please tell me!

Hi, I think that I may be able to help you.  I am a kidney stone former and I was having so much pain that they thought it was stones and did cat scans and only found "scarring" but once they went in internally to look at the kidney with a scope they found 7 stones, some big some small, attached to my calyces and papillae of the kidney, and they weren't floating around, they were hidden behind all the scarring they were causing in the lining.  I have been hurting everyday for 11 months, my pregnancy started all this, they told me that once I had my baby that I would be better, but I got worse.  Sometimes they believe that nonobstructing stones do not cause pain, but believe me they hurt very bad, enough for me to take pain medication everyday and I am on disability from work.  Hope that helps!
