Q: kidney/back pain
asked by: cedens4 on June 24th, 2009

Almost 2 years ago i got put on birth control, the depo shot. For the first year i had this wierd back pain that statred in the kidney area and shot around front to my lower abdomin area. i went to the doctor and they said i had a UTI and told me to drink cranberry juice. I did ant it went away for a few days. It came back worse than it was so after a couple weeks i went back to the doctor and there was blood in my urine so they did a CAT scan. They never even told me what was wrong. They just gave me one dose of two different strong antibiotics to kill it. The pain went away until i just recently got my next depo 3 weeks ago and the pain is back. Have you heard of anything like this? Like the depo causing kidney infections or stones or something? Also since the depo i've been having sharp nerve pain in my legs almost constantly. Any ideas??? Please help!!
