Living with LPHS
I am a 43 yr old female with a long history of kidney stones going back 18 yrs. 2 yrs ago I started having chronic left sided kidney pain with the same type of symptoms as the stones however no stones. It has taken me the full 2 years to convince the medical community I am not a drug addict nor am I suffering from a mental disorder of any kind. I am currently being treated by the pain clinic in my area and along with oral narcotic medication I am getting injections into the nerve area around my kidney with long acting anestetic medication. I am not free of pain and still have much breaktrough pain. I feel at a loss here as no one seems to have a long term solution. I would welcome any help anyone can offer.

I am hoping this is an active site and support group. I experience chronic pain and have read many stories like my own. It is validating to read my own thoughts, feelings, and experiences – good and bad written by someone I have never met. I could you know? No one in my life understands or shares this part of my life – yet you on this site you know. So I want to talk and share and support.
Hi Anne, I would go as far to say that even when those who are close to me try to say that they understand, they really do not, no one really does unless they are in pain.
