What Causes Edema And Backache While On Suboxone?

I just started taking suboxone. I think the dose is to high. I have really bad edema, my back was killing m. My Doc. put me on Lasik, no more pain and the swelling is starting to go down. I am a little scared because I had a mesinteric deep vien thrombosis last summer. Also I never have had back pain with edema. Could my kidneys or liver be damaged??

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

There are many reasons for a backache with edema, the prime concern is hydronephrosis of the kidney.

You must get a lab test with complete blood counts and serum creatinine level for further care.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel,
General Surgeon
