Hey all,
I started taking 500mg PM 2x per day morning and evening just three days ago and suddenly today, about 2.5 hours after taking my morning dose (first dose taken with 320mg SP AND PM), I got a stabbing pain in my right kidney area. It was so painful, I had to park my vehicle and recline the seat for about 30 minutes while it settled to a tolerable level. It could have been a muscle strain from lifting something heavy about 60 seconds before the pain set in or muscle fatigue from 9 hours of snow removal yesterday but my hunch is that it has something to do with the PM. I suppose I'm hypersensitive to any physical response or pain right now but it drove me to search "Kidney" in our forum and there I found this thread:

I thought it was especially strange that Bryony (the OP) sited RIGHT side kidney pain as well. He was taking 3x the dose and for 2 weeks longer when it happened to him. He adjusted his dose and spread out the intake but I’m only taking one pill per dose morning and evening so I can’t really change that. With the low dose and very short time I’ve been taking it, I haven't had any symptoms other than some very slight nipple tingling on the first day about 5 hours after the morning dose which could have easily been just a coincidence. I wasn’t expecting anything good or bad at this low dose.
In response, I’m going to increase my fluid intake (especially water) today as that is always the first recommendation for kidney ailments. Strangely, in the last hour, I’ve had to go pee three times despite not even drinking anything yet – very strange for me. I want to push a little and take two more doses (tonight and tomorrow morning - probably without SP) to see if it’s just a coincidence. By-the-way, I’ve never had kidney problems in all my 42 years and there is no history in my family either. Could I be THAT sensitive to PM? I haven't used any of the lesser potent breast herbs before so maybe even 1000mg PM is a shock to my system. Any thoughts on any of this?
