I had (and passed) a kidney stone back in May of 2005. Since then (yes, for the full two years), I have had pain come and go in both kidneys. Sometimes it's so bad, I can't stand and it gets hard to breathe. I have gone to four doctors, and only one didn't come back with "there's nothing we can do". I went in for a CT scan, and nothing was found, however, right now, I am having twinges (the best word I can think of) in my lower back, on both sides. I'm sure it's cause of the kidney stone of yore, but there doesn't seem to be anything there.
I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem, and if so, what they did about it. I am drinking lots of water (at least 3 litres per day), and I work in a kitchen for 9 to 12 hours a day, so I am getting lots of exercise. I'm getting really frustrated, since every medical professional seems to think it's all in my head.
I hope someone can help me, as I'm at my wit's end.
