A.L.
I would do a followup with my PM Doc. There are alot of funky things going around right now & I had the basic same thing not long ago, my Doc didn't even see me, she simply ordered me a 'max pac' a three day supply of, Zithromax that will pretty much take care of that upper respitory junk!
As for kidney stones, I have NEVER had them but my EX used to get them & I can tell you this....IF YOU HAD A/ANY KIDNEY STONES YOU WOULDN'T BE GUESSING ABOUT IT THEY ARE HORRID WITH PAIN & you can see the blood in your urine w/o a test, they are nasty little buggers!!! UGH!!!
I am wondering if you have been keeping yourself hydrated enough? If you have been so sick & not forcing liquids your kidneys will suffer & give you grief.
I STILL say to call your PM Doc, it's a sorry state to go to the ER & have to listen to two Docs disagree in front of you about what could/could not be wrong with you, doesn't exactly make for the patient being confident about the quality of care or the answer as to what is wrong! :(
Hope you feel better soon!
