Kidney pain and blood in urine
Posted , 4 users are following.
3 weeks ago my GP sent me to hospital as she suspected I had a kidney stone as well as an infection, I had a CT scan and a cystoscopy but they couldn't find anything so they assumed I passed the stone, 3 weeks on I still have kidney pin on left side and visable blood in my urine, I have had 2 weeks of antibiotics but still having trouble actually going for a pee and with the blood and protein.
Any tips on what to do next ?

Becky this is the same as me but my pain has been on going for 10weeks now all my tests come back negative other than blood and protein in my urine!! I'm in excruciating pain and I can't go to work etc because of it. I had a cyostscope and ct all fine I've had NHS treatment and now under a private urologist trying to find out what it is!! I woke up last night in pain crying my eyes out!! I'm unsure what to do also! Hope you get the help soon!

The pain is horrible like a constant stick from running, I'm on steroids for Rhumatoid Arthritis so not sure whether it's linked. Have you had a kidney biopsy ??

Hi no I haven't I don't know if that will be next?!? It's frustrating, should I be asking my urologist if that will be happening? I don't know if I have proteinuria however that doesn't seem to have a symptom of pain??

The pain you are describing was just like mine. A constant stitch in my side. The pain would usually last 1-3 hrs and then go away... sometimes a few hours later or days later or sometimes even weeks or months. I had tests done as well nothing was found. So my GP never repeated the tests and I was referred out to GI doctors etc..Long story short I had hydronephrosis of my right kidney. I was having renal colic episodes that are felt like a stitch pain in your side. What was happening was my urinary tube at the entrance to my kidney was kinking and then unkinking. It went undetected in my early tests probably because when I would have the scan it wasn't kinked... anyway I ended up losing my kindney when it was finally caught too late. Maybe ask your doctor if that could be a possibility? I never even heard of hydronephrosis before this happened to me.
