Can fibroids cause kidney pain and urine problems?
I know I have fibroid tumors. During a laparoscopy in 1991 they were noted but not removed. During the last four months I have had increased flow and large blood clots as well as delayed start (5 days). During the past month I have been taking Arthrotec® (new arthritis drug) which I stopped on Saturday. Beginning Sunday I noticed increased frequency of urinating as well as tremendous pain right before but not during urination. I thought it might be a kidney problem, but Dr. said no based on quick urinalysis. He thought maybe fibroid tumor problem. Since I don’t have much confidence in him, I would like to know if that is reasonable?
