zantac

949222 tn?1266834907 t take tums or any other of the calcium-based antacids because I have semi-chronic calcium kidney stones and they ARE chronic when I'm pregnant due to the different calcium absorption rates while you're pregnant...at any rate, I suffered for a long time before I was told to take zantac and it really made a difference, but ask your pharmacist and they can advise you about it until you can see your GP monday.
Avatar f tn Just be careful with tums too much calcium is bad I lived off of them for a few months of this pregnancy like 4 a day was a and I got kidney stones because of it . now I got an Rx for my doctor and I never have it at all.
Avatar n tn Pains in the abdomen radiating to the testicle can be due to kidney stones or due to colitis, diverticulitis, Crohn’s disease or IBS. It can also be an inguinal hernia. All these conditions will have to be ruled out one by one. Please consult your PCP for examination, abdominal CT scan followed by referral to an urologist, surgeon or GI doctor as need be. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar f tn I don't have gallstones but I do have kidney stones lol. One in each kidney and the bigger I get the more they hurt!!!!
Avatar f tn they contain calcium and too much calcium can form kidney stones. Good luck. .. Hope you find something that works for you!
Avatar f tn I feel your pain. Im on nexium that i take daily. I can't take tums or rolaids cuz it causes kidney stones for me. I have had non stop acid reflux since Thursday. Nothing works. Doesn't matter what i eat. Water makes it one hundred times worse. I swear my poor esophagus has holes burnt thru it and my throat. Ugh i can almost breathe fire. Its miserable. The medicine used to work but now it doesn't. Can't wait for baby girl to come.
Avatar n tn My doctor is telling me to give my 7 year old Zantac for a kidney infection, but I can't find any information on whether or not this is a proper treatment- I just want to be sure??
Avatar n tn Sure enough it loosened me up but the pain never went away and two days after that I ended up in the ER. They checked for gull stones/kidney stones, did blood tests and a CT scan of my mid section and everything came back normal. They prescribed Zantac and said possible gastroenitis. Two days after that I decided to meet with an internist who then did a brief checkup, asked my family history of diseases, etc. and concluded it was just gas so she prescribed Beano and levisit...
Avatar f tn Just remember tums have calcium. ...I ended up with kidney stones from them with my first.
Avatar f tn First 18 weeks I had all day sickness, I have constant headaches, always tired, my body aches, my hips hurt, no sex drive, always pissed off, and had kidney stones with a kidney infection and I'm only 26+3
1694901 tn?1317005964 Ask your doctor about kidney stones. I had that happen to me a couple of months ago... the pain in my back was so severe that I was actually crying. It turns out I had small kidney stone causing me problems.
Avatar m tn In the last month I had to go to the ER for kidney stones. After taking a CAT scan it showed that I have several stones still in my kidneys. I have an appointment with a kidney doctor who is a stone specialist according to my uroligist. However the appointment isn't until April. So i am sitting here hoping not to have another problem until then. Anyone had the same problem as me. As for my stones most are very small (2 mm).
Avatar f tn The biggest problem with kidney stones is inducing labor since your body is in distress I have a history of them and my ob told Mr if I feel like I'm having kidney pain to go to the hospital right away just to be safe they will usually keep you over night and make sure you pass them they don't directly affect the baby
Avatar f tn Rhe pain was worse then labor I swear. Have any of you ladies had kidney stones during this pregnancy? Im due nov 28th and im already dealing with all the pain that comes along with pregnancy and I cant go through that again.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had kidney stones during your pregnancy and what did the pain feel like. I went to the hospital earlier and was sent home and told I was just experiencing round lig pain but I'm a bit skeptical of that verdict because it lasted for hours and the pain was so intense. I didn't test positive for a uti either but idk what to think. I dont have bloody urine but i swear i peed out something resembling a small pebble earlier too.
Avatar f tn This past friday at 1:20am I was rushed to the ER from sudden back pain that was unbearable I was so scared for my baby.. Came to the conclusion it's kidney stones and I became more terrified because there's not many pain killers they could give me other than tylenol and morphine, so about the last one I asked if it was ok for my baby, first they said not sure!!
Avatar f tn Anyone else have kidney stones..? If so what do you do about it. It is SO painful..
Avatar f tn Had anyone had kidney stones? This is my 3rd child I'm 12+1 weeks.I'm healthy.but in the last 2 weeks I have had 4 kidney stones(on top of being really sick with"morning sickness"). Not kidding it IS worse than having a baby. MY ob said they don't effect the baby at all and pregnant women are more prone to getting them.had any body else had this problem.
Avatar f tn Hi ladies have any of yous experienced the oh-so-lovely pain of kidney stones? Also once it passed how long did kidney pain last? The hospital I attended to didn't help nor my doctor was any help! Thanks!
Avatar f tn As you have had/still have calcium oxalate stones, your risk of getting more kidney stones is much increased. Avoid the foods mentioned and browse the web for more information on oxalate rich foods that you should avoid or eat less of. It is also very important to always stay well hydrated. Your urologist may have advised you to drink 2 litres of fluids (4 pints) during the day, more if you are doing exercises that make you sweat or perspiring in hot weather.
Avatar f tn s been 2 days since I was discharged from the hospital after a week of suffering from kidney stones and ended up having to under go a procedure where they placed a tube in my kidneys and now I have a bag attached to my side until after I deliver. I've never felt so much discomfort and pain. It's hard for me to do anything I can't even shower properly.
Avatar f tn There are other types as well ( cystine, struvite , uric) Kidney stones may hold a genetic predisposition. In your case, the presence of kidney formers in the family may explain the onset of kidney stones at an earlier age. It is best to open lines of communication with your physicians. At this point, you may discuss on whether a referral to a pain management specialist may help.Continue following physician's advice regarding diet, fluid intake and exercise.
Avatar n tn I'm a nineteen year old girl. A few days ago, I started experiencing over-all mild, lower back pain. I have back problems, so I just got out the heating pad and didn't pay much attention. But the pain didn't go away and it's been getting worse. It had become concentrated in my lower back to the right side of my spinal cord, right over my hip. Sometimes it does hurt in the right side of my abdomen and in the middle of my back, too. I'm 99% sure it's my kidney.
Avatar f tn I have a male friend who's been dealin w/ kidney stones for about a year quite now. He's on medi-cal in CA & he's not gettin anywhere w/ doctor's. He's been waitin for 1 mo. now for a referral to see a specialist & in the mean time his symptoms seems to be gettin more serious.
Avatar f tn I have a 15 yr. history with kidney stones. I had my most recent attack 3 weeks ago and it was one of the longest enduring of any I've had, with the most severe flank and ureter pain lasting almost 12 hrs. The last couple hours of the horrible pain, I experienced what I would almost call spasms very low down, and I've never had that before in any of the other attacks. I had waves of pain and the urge to urinate every few minutes.
Avatar f tn It's been three weeks since my diagnosis of having multiple kidney stones on the right side. The Radiologist who gave me my stat results said I would pass them and didnt think straining my urine was something I needed to do. I finally got in to see my urologist he was upset I wasn't straining and wanted me to have surgery since I will be undergoing IVF treatments in March. I agreed because I don't want to deal with flare up while pregnant.
