My father is just over 60 and he has a very large stomach (ascites) filled with fluid and keytones in his urine. He also has lumps in his belly that can be felt when you touch his stomach. And he has lost a great amount of weight. His prostate, kidney, pancrease, and liver have all been tested as healthy. The doctors suspect cancer of the colon although we are not sure, is xeloda also known as capecitabine the right path of treatment?

I had 22 stones within 2 years, then they stopped for 3 years, no change in diet. Then a 7mm attempted an escape and got stuck, three weeks of pure agony. I had to have the laser and stint. I was also told there were two more (7mm in the left and a 5mm in the right) stones in my kidneys. Since none of my stone’s ever leave until they hit 5mm or greater I chose to have ESWL. I ended up in the ER after my blood pressure jumped to 189/111 and my body temp dropped to 95.2 degree’s, I was also going into shock when I woke. Now I have residual pain in my left kidney, but the real problem is my stomach…sore, swollen, pain, constipation…each day is lessening, but quite uncomfortable (day 3 now). My question is has anyone else ever had those side effects, and does it increase my chance of having those side effects again when they do the other kidney. I’m glad it was done, but I’m really rethinking having the other side done because of the other pain I’m in…Please help!

I woke up at 1 in the morning with severe abdominal pain. It only got worse as the night went until I curled my legs in holding my stomach and slept a little. It’s 7 now and the pain isn’t nearly as bad except when I get up to move around I can feel it a little. It almost felt like I was punched in the stomach and the pain radiated forever and just didn’t seem to go away with any position I made. I also went to the bathroom and my pee was a light yellow but It didn’t burn to pee. I also made a bowel movement and it was very dark and tarry. What could this be?

Today was supposed to be my 5th day in Ketosis. Could that have something to do with it? My diet consists of Boca burgers, eggs, peanut butter, cheese, cashews, protein shakes, and 5-8 glasses water. I also take a vitamin D3, B12, and a multivitamin.

Please help. Was it a Kidney stone even though I didn’t feel any pain peeing?
