Recurring Kidney Infection. Painful Urination, Pain In Side, Loose Bowels

I keep having recurring kidney infections . I went to my doctor this morning for one that started last night. I only have pain when I urinate and I ve had a constant pain in my right side for about 6 months. Now I am sick at my stomach and I can t eat or drink without having to run to the bathroom with very loose bowels. I m very tired of the constant pain and now its hard to work because of the other.

Nephrologist,  's  Response
Dear madam/ sir, I can understand your despair. Pain during micturition is most commonly due to infection, but can also be due to other reasons. Can you tell me if the infections have been confirmed, by way of positive culture, each time you were diagnosed of urinary infection? Does urine routine exam have pus cells and blood in it? Have you had a ultrasound scan of your kidneys? What other medical problems do you have? Do you have history of kidney stones? I think you need to see a good physician/ nephrologist ASAP who can make a good assessment and treat you appropriately. Good luck
