Frequent urination, soreness in ribs, back pain. Urinalysis showed protein, low vitamin D. Suggest?
Hi, For the last week I have been going to the bathroom constantly to pee especially at night to the point where I cant get a good nights sleep. My urinalysis showed up that it had protein in it and blood work shows a low Vitamin D of 14 but my rheumatologist didn t seem concerned. I have soreness underneath both of ribs but only when I touch them. I am getting over shingles and mono so I do have aching back pain. How I would I know if I had a kidney infection? Where would the pain originate from?

Low levels of Vitamin D may be the reason for all your problems.
You can start taking Calcirol( 1 satchet )twice a week by mouth.
Repeat your urine test after 2 weeks of this treatment.
Meanwhile get Blood-KFT & an ultrasound done for your kidneys & urinary bladder
