ve had serious insomnia and anxiety/fear due to the idea that I may get that kidney infection again. The pain of the kidney infection scared me out of anorexia, to say the least. The anxiety had become extreme to the point of serious panic attacks. My mother sent me something called lorazepam, she tells me that if I have an attack, I should take it. I wanted to ask a doctor's opinion before I actually take it at the time of my panic attacks which usually occurs at night.

I would really talk to your doctor if you are worried. The kidney function test is easily enough done and then it won't be on your mind. If the weight gain is fluid retention then it may be kidney related. And drink water. Dehydration is something you do have control over and will help protect your kidneys from the toradol. Also nixing the caffeine will help as well.

Hi, I have been gaining weight rapidly for the past year. Since discovering that I have been gaining weight, I have increased my exercise and change my eating habits significantly (more whole foods, less processed junk). I am continuing to gain weight and it's very frustrating. I have been tested for low thyroid, cushing's, etc. etc. Nada. I am not getting anywhere. I am very uncomfortable with over 200 lbs now on my 5'4" frame. I used to maintain about 122 lbs.

Medications like OCpills, antidepressants, pain killers, steroids all can lead to weight gain. Lack of sleep will make you gain weight.

I am ex military so this really is hard for me.

Weight gain is common with the shot while on it. Do you have a burning sensation or anything when you try to pee? Is the urge there all the time? Are you sure the blood isn't coming from your urethra and is an actual period (easy test by just wiping each area to see where it's coming from)? If even the first two are true, I'd go to the doctor and get tested for a UTI.

Crohn’s disease, diverticulitis, infection in kidney, kidney stones, constipation, and an abscess in rectus abdominis muscle or psoas muscle can all cause lower left abdomen pain. It could also be a periumbilical hernia that has got trapped resulting in small bowel obstruction or mesenteric ischemia. An ultrasound or CT scan of abdomen is definitely required. Aortic aneurysm too can present this way.

The pain was so bad one morning I went to the ER and the doctor there gave me medication for a kidney infection.... in the mix of the next few days I forgot to take my Zoloft and I was feeling a lot better. Mind you, I had just began taking Zoloft to begin with so it wasn't in my daily routine to continue taking it. A few days later, I took my Zoloft again and the pain came back. My family and I realized the cause. Long story short, my time taking Zoloft was short. Maybe two weeks?
