Hi,

You had hysterectomy done & have a history of kidney stones & cysts. Fatigue, swelling, fluctuating blood pressure are indicative of kidney problem (dysfunction/failure). Urologists & Nephrologists generally work together.

You are suggested to visit a Urologist & get all the Blood tests, Urinalysis, Kidney Function tests done. You may have to go for a biopsy, imaging tests (CT, MRI, etc). Get it done, get physically examined & evaluated. You will be treated with medications or surgery (cyst /stone removal) depending upon the severity of your disease. If you need a dialysis you will be referred to a Nephrologist. For pain take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) & some antacid or PPI's, Pantoprazole when discomfort.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
