Can Antibiotics Cause Solar Plexus And Back Pain With Discomfort?

Hi I have a pain lately some days that starts in solar plexus and seems to radiate back to the same area in my back. It s really uncomfortable and lasts around 2 to 3 hours then goes. I have lyme disease and am receiving antibiotic treatment, for 2 years now. Could it be due to the antibiotics? I m not great with my water intake as I forget to drink a whole lot. A bit worried my kidneys are strained? Thanks, Samantha
