Kidney Problem?

I posted this under the Move to Lose thread, but thought it might get noticed more on its own. My lower back has been killing me all day today. I'm not sure if it's muscles that are sore, or if my kidneys are aching. It's in the right spot for my kidneys (I think), and they ached all day. By the end of the day, I just came home and curled up on the couch instead of going to the gym. Anyone had problems like this? I don't think I'm dehydrated. I hope it's just muscle soreness, but it seems too "internal" to be muscle. I guess time will tell. If anyone has any thoughts/remedies, please let me know. Angie

Angie, Why don't you go see your doctor just to get it checked out? Kathy

Hi Kathy, As luck would have it, I already have an appointment with my PCP tomorrow, and I will let her know about it. I am leaning toward it being a muscular problem because I'm feeling much better today. We'll see how the rest of the day goes. Angie

How lucky of you. Cuz you didn't want me to come all the way out there and drag ya to the doctor, did ya? LOL! Glad you are feeling better today. Kathy

Is it a specific area that hurts when touched? If so, that might indicate something internal. Does it generally hurt when you move around? That might be muscular. Have it checked out though. Feel better! Hugs, Tracy
