What Causes Abdomen And Back Pain With Urine Odor?
I ve been having pain in my abdomen and lower back for the past month... I ve been treated with 2 10 day rounds of anitbiotics for kidney infection, UTI and kidney stones. I also just finished a methylprednisolone dose pack that the urologist gave me.... the pain is not going away, its maybe 10 % better than a month ago! the swelling is still here, fever, weakness. this MD is treating me for all these infections and my WBC is not the least bit elevated and HAS NOT been since this all started. some of the other things in my blood work were low... when I urinate, which is MAYBE 2 times a day, it smells like death... I have an appointment again tues... is my kidney failing?
