Hi all,
I've been searching the internet for answers to why my kidneys hurt every morning (I think it's my kidneys?). There is not much out there. It tends to refer to renal failure or stones. I doubt I have either. So I am asking my board buddies to share what they may know about it. I suspect one of two things at this point.

1. Not enough water.
2. Vicodin, daily.

My back hurts mostly in the morning upon waking, but aches all day long. This is a different pain than my osteoarthritis in my low back. Between the two it just gives me an overall feeling of ick.

My Uncle has Diabetes...and I have been tested for that in the past...but that seemed to come up with my search too.

Any knowlegeable thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
J
