kidney stones in crohn's disease

What are the symptoms for an Crohn's disease? Can it lead to any kinda complication like Arthritis? Anyone can explain it precisely?

Hi Welcome to the MedHelp forum! You must try and find a good nephrologist. Recurrent kidney stones are found renal tubular acidosis, medullary sponge kidney, Dent's disease (genetic disease of the kidney), hyperparathyroidism, primary hyperoxaluria and Crohn's disease. For oxalate stones you need to restrict (not totally stop) foods which are high in oxalate like beans, legumes, dark green leaves, egg plant, spinach, beets, chocolates, wheat barn, rhubarb and nuts and fruit cake.

s disease, when it was finally removed it was so solid with sludge it almost burst. I have had several kidney stones and one surgically removed when it was lodged in the duct. I am in contant pain, whether it be muscle or other. I had an intestinal hernia repaired 2 years ago and the surgeon discovered that I had torn almost all of my stomach muscles (I'd been caring for my dying mom, lifting her, etc.)Here's my current situation.......

I have Crohn's Disease for over 20 years now. Recently, I found out I have many Gall Stones and is causing a lots of pain. My general doctor suggest the removal of the Gallbladder but I'm concern about without it will make my Crohn's worse. Wouldn't just removing the stones better then without Gallbladder?

Recurrent kidney infection can be due to diabetes, some anomaly or defect in the kidney or due to the organisms developing antibiotic resistance. Recurrent kidney stones are found renal tubular acidosis, medullary sponge kidney, Dent's disease (genetic disease of the kidney), hyperparathyroidism, primary hyperoxaluria and Crohn's disease. Since the pain comes before periods too, it can also be due to endometriosis.

s), colitis, kidney stones, kidney infection, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cyst, ovarian torsion, ectopic pregnancy, pelvic inflammatory disease, hernia, and/or cancer. You should see your doctor, as proper diagnosis depends upon clinical history, physical examination, and laboratory and/or imaging tests.

Even though I took all of these meds, can it be that I still have a UTI , kidney infection or kidney disease? I am in the process of getting a renal and pelvic sonogram but it is a long time from now because of the holidays. Please help! Pain is unbearable.

How old are you? Colorectal cancer is rare under 40. Thickening and inflammation of colonic wall, and inflammation detected in blood, is typical for Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. Now they will do a colonoscopy to take few samples of tisue to determined diagnosis exactly.

s not a kidney problem. They usually show up in blood work. Also dehydration can cause kidney problems. and if your kidneys hurt is' the lower back where it's going to show. Figure out how much water you drink in a day (vs. when you have a beer etc.) and any other medical conditions you might have. (And dude, you are 26 years old, what is up with you typing like a 12 year old??

Hi! Recurrent kidney stones are found renal tubular acidosis, medullary sponge kidney, Dent's disease (genetic disease of the kidney), hyperparathyroidism, primary hyperoxaluria and Crohn's disease. Diet high in animal fiber, dehydration, and low calcium intake can also cause recurrence of stones. Please discuss these possibilities with your doctor and see if you suffer from any of these disorders. Treating these would help reduce pain.

Sorry I don't know the answer--but if it makes you feel any better I am going in on Wednesday for the EXACT same thing. I think what I have is Crohn's only because autoimmune diseases run in my family. It's easily been 10 years since i remember having problems. They found a mass on my ascending colon on a ct scan so I definately am concerned. This is one of the questions I was going to ask if it was Crohn's so I'll ask anyway and let you know what I find out.

UTI can also be due to the polycystic kidney disease as well. Kidney stones and kidney failure are late-stage symptoms of the disease. I suggest you an immediate urologist’s evaluation. If the size of the stone is small, it’s usually treated with ESWL in which shock waves are given from outside and stone breaks into small pieces. On the other hand, if the stone is quite big, then the surgical removal of the stone is a better option. Also her renal functions need to be studied.

Is it normal for stones stuck in the kidney to cause so much pain?? Could the fact that I have pkd be making the pain from these stones worse...I guess I'll be headed back to er if pain doesn't let up before I run out of the few pills I have until I see my urologist. Any advice or knowledge would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, There are many possibilities to your symptoms.The most likely one is appendicitis(inflammation of the appendix).Others are irritable bowel syndrome(irregular bowel movements of constipation and diarrhea along with the pain and nausea are there), Crohn's disease(Crohn's disease most commonly affects the last part of the small intestine, usually located in the right lower abdomen) ,kidney infections, intestinal obstruction, mesenteric occlusion or enteritis.

I think you are not getting enough information from doctors. Creon is a mixture of pancreatic enzymes, and it is maybe given because pancreas is not working properly. In this case, blood test for pancreatic enzymes, and pancreatic function tests would show reduced pancreatic function.

My cat Mini is a 6-year old male cat and has recently diagnosed CRF. Also kidney stones are found in the L kidney and one in the L ureter. The vet in Hong Kong said there's nothing we can do to get rid of the stone in the ureter, only surgery of removing the L kidney, but since his R kidney is not healthy as well (calcium deposits found in the R kidney), complication rate is very high, death rate is like 60%.

Kindly let me know the diet I should be having, what food I should be avoiding and what I should eat, ( I love eating chicken, fish and goat meat) Also I had read somewhere that there is a possibility of occurance of kidney stones after every 8 years ( which came out true in my case). In that case should I expect to get this extremely painful problem by 2018? Please do reply as I would be getting my next assignment soon.

Hello, I had uncontrolled Crohn's back in 2006, ended up perforating my ilieum in 2007. I was on Asacol, Entocort, and numerous other drugs. Since my bowel resection, my symptoms went away...just as quickly as they came on. I stayed on Azothiaprine for 2 years 2007 to Dec 2009 but have now stopped that too. I don't know if this helps but I eat off the Maker's Diet, which is basically just eating raw, unprocessed foods, organic. It tastes great and I feel better.

What is your blood pressure? Sounds like it is your kidneys. You could be getting repeated kidney stones or you could have a large kidney stone now. Are you drinking lots of pop like mountain dew? Pop with lots of sugar cause kidney stones. You will want to have your kidneys checked out again as soon as possible. If for some reason it is kidney infection, this is quite serious in males.

Intestines are now clear of disease, but stomache and esphogus are not and show swelling and scarring. Kidney Stones - 100% Uric Acid Stones along with sediment in urine. It's like urinating and passing red sand. It is incredibly painfull. And last but not least memory loss.

My personal theory that has come through lot of research and my doctor, is that a biofilm infection has actually set up with in the calcifications in the kidney! I have found a doctor that specializes in MSK and Chronic pain,,, he is using a new procedure to clear out the calcifications deep in our kidneys. Right now I am scheduled to have that procedure done on Aug. 4th. I plan to post more infomation afterward! I do hope you will join the MSK board! You are not a lone....

If you are constantly in fetal position, you need to seek prompt medical attention to rule out appendicitis, ileitis (e.g., Crohn's), colitis, mesenteric adenitis, kidney stones, kidney infection, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cyst, ovarian torsion, ectopic pregnancy, pelvic inflammatory disease, and/or hernia.

Hi everyone! My name is Alison. I'm 27 years old. I've had Crohn's disease for 20 years now. I also had the pleasure of having Endometriosis in my bladder and outside my uterus on my intestines, etc. I had a total hysterectomy when I was 22 due to this. I've had 6 inches of my intestine removed when I was 12 due to the Crohn's, many kidney stone removals, gallbladder removed, and many exploratory laps. I've been on two TNF drugs: Remicade and Cimzia.
