Hi all, wondering if anyone can shed some light onto my health issues...
Since Aug / sep last year I have had 3 or 4 kidney infections and I am in constant pain which varies from a dull ache to being really sore. I have had a few incidents of swollen feet and yellowing of the whites of my eyes.
I have currently had a CT scan, an ultrasound and many blood and urine tests all of which have come back "normal". No stones or anything like that. My GP is at a loss and my nephrologist (kidney specialist) is running out of ideas.
I am going back to hospital this week to discuss a kidney biopsy but I'm not sure whether this would help if everything else has drawn a blank.
Has anyone else had a similar experience, what was the outcome??
I have been off work for 5 weeks with anxiety and depression and I'm fairly sure that the kidney problems were the beginning of the anx / dep issues.
Help....
