Hi,Pain at about waist level ,radiating to back needs to be evaluated.You should undergo Ultrasound abdomen to rule out Right sided Ureteric stone.Regarding tingly sensations please Sleep in a Flat and Firm bed and also please take X ray Cervical Spine and Lumbar spine.Please check your Blood sugar levels by Glucose tolerance test(GTT).
