I am a 24 year old female. Since beginning of July I’ve been having pains in my LEFT kidney. It was nothing terrible just a faint numbness. I just rubbed it and slept on my right side and it would usually go away. A week ago the pain in my LEFT kidney radiates to my LEFT shoulder blade and the faint pain stays there. Plus the pain got worse. Yesterday I got a pain on my RIGHT ovary… that pain for the most part went away. TODAY I have pain on my RIGHT kidney and the pain radiates to my RIGHT shoulder blade. NOW both sides are hurting. It’s a faint numbness that gets to a sharp pain for a few seconds. If I take a deep breath I feel the pain in my back. Today I am also getting acid reflux with it. FYI my pee is normal. I’m going to the doctor tomorrow but people are telling me it’s my kidneys, gallbladder, stones, ovary infection, mini heart attacks or just bad gas. What do I believe??? I know I will get an answer tomorrow but I’m scared as hell now and want a better educated idea on what might be going wrong here. I take vitamins every morning, drink lots of water, and don’t have a bad diet (I’ve actually lost a lot of weight recently). Please help!

So for about a week, I have had this weird cramping/pressure on my left side (not front or back; directly on the side) right under my ribcage. I think it might be a kidney stone, but I’m not sure. I don’t have painful urination, and I wouldn’t really say I pee frequently, either. It only hurts when I lay or sit in certain positions, and I can feel it more if I sit up and take a deep breath or yawn. If I lay on my left side, I can’t feel the pain. It gets worse if I lay on my right side, almost as if my ribs are pressing down on something underneath them. Could this be a kidney stone? If so, what are some good remedies I can try that will dissolve it and flush it out quickly? I just want to try some natural things before going to the doctor, since I hate going there. Any REAL help would be greatly appreciated; I want my pain to stop ASAP. Oh yeah; if I press that side, I cannot feel anything out of the ordinary, and it doesn’t hurt when I press there, either.
