pancreatitis and kidney pain

[Guest guest]

I am fairly new to both the message board and chronic pancreatitis--

-only 2 years, but bad ones for me---am now experiencing kidney pain

and am not sure if it is related to the pancreatitis---have not had

the time to go in to the dr. yet---thought it was just muscle pain,

but am quite sure it isn't now---not bad, just not going away---about

2 wks. now and not getting worse, just real sore at times---hope

everyone had a very happy holiday season!! God Bless!!

Hi, welcome back. Did you find that info I emailed you a few months

back about that procedure you were asking about helpful? I'm sorry

your having more pain. I dont know if your pain is kindney or not,

but I have pain radiating from my right upper abd, and around my

back just below my rib cage. Sometimes that is my biggest complaint

is the back pain, but it is from the panc and how it hits different

nerves and muscles when it is inflamed. It also radiates from my

right shoulder to my right pelvis. When all three hit, I am a

mess. Do you have a history of kidney problems? Hae you ever

passed a stone? Now thats awful!!. Have you ever had blood in

your urine? I like to use a heating pad on my back it just relaxes

it some. I hope you feel better soon and I hope your holiday was

wonderful. Keep in touch.

Are you sure it is your kidney. Alot of times I have pain from my

pancreatitis under my ribcage to my lower back. Do you have a GI that you see

regularly?

I have pain that radiates down to my lower back. I am still recovering from

my most recent attack.

I have had 2 attacks where the pain actually started from down near

my kidneys...I thought..omg..now I'm having a kidney stone attack on

top of CP and my stupid tumours...went to the hospital, but by the

time I got there (1/2 hour) the pain had shifted mainly upwards, and

when I tried to take a deep breath, of course, it felt like

everything in my upper abdomen was twisting..then I knew it was

definitely pancreatitis.. I told the doctor about it starting near

the kidneys and they did tests for stones there, but was negative...

As I had more attacks after that time, the pain tended to radiate

downwards as well as upwards..I just took it as a sign of getting

worse..

Hi,

My hubby have had kidney stones for years and the pain appear to be in the

lower back, a little lower than I have had my pancreatitis pain.

By the way he uses to have also vomiting and diarrhea and he became really

really sick and pale.

The doubt could be solved doing a simple kidney US.

Happy Holidays for you all,

Liane
