What Do Lower Backache And Nausea While Suffering From Polycystic Kidneys Indicate?
Hi, I am searching the web right now due to I have been slowing getting worse. I know I have polycycstic kidneys. But now it just seems like my stomach feels tender and a little nauseated when I walk to much ( normal walking) or are active. Yes I have lower back pain too. Do you think this is the kidneys?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Since you are already having PCOD (poly cystic ovary disease), possibility of hormonal imbalance related symptoms is more likely. But at the same time, we should also rule out kidney stone for vomiting and lower backache. So get done ultrasound KUB (kidney ureter bladder) and hormone levels. If ultrasound is normal then no need to worry for kidney stone. Hormonal pills should be started in case of hormonal imbalance. Once your hormones are normalize you will be alright.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
