Had Nephrostomy Previously. Having Stabbing Sharp Pain In Kidneys, Fever, Dizziness. Due To Dehydration?
How nice, thank you. 31/2 weeks ago had my Nephrostomy set up. Tonight I have stabbing sharp pain in my kidney area and running a 102.3° temp. Is this due to dehydration ? I also feel very dizzy. When I went to the ER for these symptoms (minus the fever) 2days ago, they said I was fine...blood work and fray tests... I also, on the 14th had my Aphib shocked beck to normal and sm taking Prodaxa. Help. Tyvm Debbie Paci LI NY
Welcome to HCM. It appears that you are having a Urinary tract /Renal infection ,it would be prudent to consult your doctor at the earliest for physical examination and investigations(urine routine and microscopic examination and urine culture and antibacterial sensitivity testing apart from other relevant tests),the Afib can also be rechecked if required.The doctor will be able to guide you further after seeing your reports.
