<s>[INST] i have had low grade stomach ache and kidney pain the last 2 weeks. Started taking Hydrochlorothiazide about 3 weeks ago. can I just stop taking it to see if these issues go away ? did not have this problem before. Not consistent pains just intermittent. [/INST] Hello need proper clinical evaluation and investigations. Pain may be due to many reasons like acidity, liver,gall bladder problem, renal problem etc. You may need routine hologram, random blood sugar, liver and renal function test, urine and stool RE/ME. Ultrasound of abdomen should also be done. It is very important, and can exclude many causes. Proper management depend upon findings. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.  </s>
