Has anyone experienced lower-middle back pain (in the kidney area) while on elmiron? It's not a side affect that's mentioned. But I was on elmiron for about a month and a half and during that time developed the back pain. At the time, I though nothing of it and just went to my chiropractor. (It's not a kidney infection.) Eventually, the back pain went away.
I took a three week break from elmiron for some other side affects and just restarted it two weeks ago. The last couple of days that back pain is back (no pun intended) and it's really uncomfortable!
I just looked at my pain/meds calendar and realized that the initial back pain started about two weeks after I started elmiron the first time and subsided during the 'break.'
Time to take a break again and see if it's indeed causing the pain. The nausea and slight headache, I can deal with. But, the back pain is miserable and it's only getting worse.
