Sounds like you're trying to pass a stone. I also have cysts on both kidneys and they tell me the same thing. If they drain them, they'll most likely fill up again, but I've been assured they will not turn cancerous. What are your calcium levels like?
@A DiabetesTeam Member what new med will you be taking?
I also have "leaky kidneys"....they say from diabetes, but I THINK I've always had it, either way, I get to start a new med this week for it!!! oh well...what else can you do?
CUT OUT SODA!!! Soda is EVIL. Diet is even worse with all chemicals! Drink water instead. I WEANED myself with those ICE flavored waters over about two weeks! I do tea as a treat once a day. Rest is water! I only have a soda once a month because usually no other choice some where. LEMONS in water, lemon and magnesium help fight stones! 48-56 oz of water daily!!!
