Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am ahealthy active 23 year old male. I do drink a beer occassionaly.I do drink about 2-3 energy drinks daily. I had extreme back pain and sweating profusely and went to the emergency room. The Dr said it was probably a kidney stone. There was blood in the urine test. I was given muscle relaxer shot and ibuprofen . the next day went back and got another shot Dr said should get an ultrasound but tech would not be in for another day. I drank vinegar home remedy for kidney stones. Still sweating and pain moved to front abdomen.I. went to Dr today and got blood tests and ultrasound enzymes were high and no kidney stones. Dr then diagnosed too much drinking alcohol and recommended treatment said my liver was enlarged also said native american s have a high rate for alcoholism and cirrohcis. I feel that this is misdiagnosis and also racial . can I get these symptoms from something like energy drinks?
