No difference in urination. Just meds for diabetes. No vomiting. Haven't lifted anything heavy. Haven't fallen or twisted. There's no pain if I sit or lie still. Sharp jab if I breath too deeply, cough or yawn. It's a pinching feeling. Thought it was going away but tonight it's worse. Drs tests were negative.

If it's urinary travels what can I do to eliminate them. I'm leaving on a trip the 10th of Apr an I don't want to be in this much pain.
