Hi all,
Firstly I’m on topiramate for migraines for 5 weeks now which my neurologist told me can cause kidney stones so I’ve had lower back pain mostly to my left side but sort of all over too for the last 4/5 days along with a bit of tummy ache too. Tonight I went along to my gp and did a urine sample when I arrived which was cloudy with a white grainy sediment that settled to the bottom quickly (looked like grains of sand but white). I gave it to the gp who remarked on it being cloudy and is sending it off (I can get results Thursday afternoon) but I’m feeling anxious :( he pressed in my back and gave me antibiotics but I’m just feeling worried about the urine sample and the back ache! Does it sound like it could just be something as simple as a uti or kidney stone? Thanks xxx
