troubled me for quite period of time
and though | tried various remedies,
could not find one that would help me-.

back at times was very lame. 1t waS
impossible for me to get full nights
rest and as the result, | always felt tired
and worn out during the day. | also
suffered from headaches and another
source of annoyance was the kidney
