Well I think it is a kidney stone, similar to what I had ten years ago. My doc has done an urgent referral to a urologist, she said she wants to have me fully checked with various tests for other stuff aswell. Would it be ok to continue cycling and jogging, I forgot to ask her.

Having had a kidney stone, I'm not sure I would be physically able to!

I would ring NHS direct and ask - as I would probably avoid doing anything which could potentially dehydrate you, as you don't know how your kidneys will deal with this.

Thanks MTF I had a kidney stone ten years ago which was very painful but not all the time, it use to hit me every now and again until it was removed, ouch.

The symptoms are similar but the doc is sending me for a load of tests as she wants to get to the bottom of the symptoms. A bit worrying to say the least as she has mentioned other stuff. As for the jogging, I did four miler today, drank half a litre on route and all was fine but I will check it out with NHS direct, thanks again.

I guess the question is; would you be able to get home, if an attack struck as you were half way round a 40 miler?

In that case, I think your signature needs a disclaimer pointing out that you completed those rides aboard an ambulance :biggrin:

No they're for cycling on the signature, I was on about jogging, although 20 mile is my furthest jog, just once :rolleyes:
