Thought I'd just say hello and send along hopes that your pain level has continued to lessen after stopping the omeprazole. You have good instincts in listening to your body and looking for a solution that helps.

Best wishes,
Catherine

I am sorry if you took offense to that comment. I in no why intended to hurt you or cause any embarrassment.

I will re frame from anymore humor on your posts.

Sorry again.

I am keenly aware of my increasing difficulty in finding the right word. I know I find the wrong word more and more. Someday I may not know that a sock is called a sock, or the names of my children.

I crack you up. Where I am today, you will be.

Did not know about kidney stones. People with the one calcification tend to have others. Makes sense. Way too familiar with referred pain. I say bladder pain because that is the trigger, lower pelvic pain is more descriptive.

Mike,

Your theory makes sense that the calcification can be caused by omeprazole since one of the major side effects is kidney stones. Some people also have signs of pancreas inflammation, stomach or other abdominal pain. It doesn't seem like it would cause bladder pain but I'm sure you know about referred pain as well. Who knows though, if it can cause the other pains maybe it could also cause bladder pain.


Mike

P.S. Hopefully it is only plaque calcification and not plague calcification! :D
We don't need any more plague. :)
