Kidney Problem? or just muscle spasm/gas/stomach acid? little sharp waves of pain

[gladiator777]

im 35 yrs old almost 3 weeks ago I stopped a 2 month cycle.

cycle was 250mg test per week & dbol for only 4 weeks at 30 mgs/day

I have waves of sharp stingin pain.

it's not real painful but it's annoying.

is this a sign of kidney stones?

or can it hopefully be just muscle spasm/gas/stomach acid

thanks for any help

I'd go to the doctor and get checked out, could be a range of things

thanks im on my way soon didn't want to go but I need peace of mind...

I know my cycle was nothing like Nasser but still...u know... we all kind of wonder about malaria and his kidney failure

One other thing. I know a guy who while I worked at a movie theater in college came back to work one day to pick up something of his and he lost all his muscle. I didn't even recognize him. He told me he had kidney stones. This guy lifted. He must have been like 23-24 at the time. *He told me too much Calcium is what led to his stones.

(my own intake of calcium is limited. I don't even regularly drink protein shakes as Im trying to cut up and lose some weight)

How much of a toll on a Lifter's hard-earned workOuts at the gym does something like Kidney stones take?

Do people lose all or almost all their body mass recuperating from kidney stones?

If so, why?

the "why" part is just optional...my limited research is that kidney stones are like waves of sharp pain in the back area to the left or right of the spine...

***what im concerned with is: How to avoid loss of all or most of my hard-earned muscle mass.

thanks again for any useful input or even trying to help

Your going to loose some sort of mass after surgery and recovery time, you wont be eating right and you wont be training.

ok thanks for your input

Dude, your symptoms could be a whole range of things. Nobody is going to be able to just give you a definitive answer. If it continues, go see a doctor.

But if you're recovering from something odds are you're not going to be training hard and you're probably not going to be eating like a champ either. So you're bound to lose mass.

chances r they could just be micro kidne stones causing minor pain while passing. but to be safe go see your pcp and he will run some lipid profiles from some blood work.

Came back from the E.R. GOOD NEWS! FOR FUTURE REFERENCE IF YOU'RE IN THE SAME SITUATION: Simple urine test...No xrays were needed....urine showed nothing wrong, so there wasn't a need to take xrays or any other tests. Doc. said it was/is probably muscle spasms. It makes sense because nerve sensitivity & muscle spasms can probably cause waves of stinging discomfort (similar to kidney problems). Thanks everyone.
