Q: Pain On Left Side For Almost a Year

I have had a pain that comes and goes, sometimes lasting a whole day or just a few minutes. The pain comes at any time and feels as though it is deep inside my lower back in the area of the kidney. Kidney stones have been ruled out. The pain first started with a feeling of something moving and would escalate. It doesn't feel like an actual back problem as the pain is located in one spot and doesnt radiate, although sometimes my skin is sore in that one spot.

I have had chest x-rays, ultra sounds and a ct scan but they show nothing except some divertaculitis. My doctor doesn't seem to think that is causing the pain.

I'm not sure where to go next.......

You know that sounds just like what I had. I never noticed it particularly, unless my husband touched the spot.

I am not sure where it came from and why I had the tenderness and sometimes pain. No one could find out what it was.

Then my husband started talking me into changing my supplementation and he also got me some pain relief oil.

I have meen sore and pain free for over a year and I love it. Also my lower back problems, as well as my sciaitica pain has improved alomost 80%.

Hope you'll find something for your pain.

If you are interested, leave me a message here and i'll let you know what I am taking.

Good health

I Dont Have An Answer Yet But May Have Some Indication......

I went on a trip to reno last week, left saturday and by wed or thurs realized I hadnt had any pain. This could be because I was drinking the water in reno and had drinks with icecubes probably made from tap water. This probably affected my system as I am not used to the water there (if you get my drift). I think it is something to do with the bowel so really should go in for one more test . :shock:

Paulisperils, were did you stay in reno?

As far as I know, except for lake tahoe, most of the water is pretty bad, since it comes out of wells and they use a lot of chemicals at times.

I am sure glad, though, that you were painfree while in reno. Hope you had good luck on the machine.

Yes, I would definitely get it checked out.

Stay painfree.
