I've been on 100% raw now for 3 weeks, and have had several different detox symptoms, mostly none too severe. Until perhaps last night.

I woke up in the middle of the night in excruciating pain on the left side of my body, the hip area. I felt pain in my lower back, and abdomen. The pain was so intense I was dizzy, nauseous, and had hot sweats. I also vomited at one point it was so painful. I could not get myself into a comfortable position. I had to keep shifting around. I did not have any bowel problems what so ever. The pain persisted for about 50 minutes and was constant. it did not come in waves, and I also asked my fiancé to take me to the ER at one point.

It slowly subsided, and i was able to lay back down, flat on my back and this morning that area is super tender/sore, but none of the excruciating pain anymore.

I understand there are several causes for this, as there are plenty of organs on this side of my body. I am 28 year old female by the way, with no previous history of kidney stones, or bladder infections. Could this have been a stone that's been in my body for awhile that my body is now trying to flush itself out? I've been eating lots of fresh juice, and smoothies, limiting seeds/nuts, and having avocados, coconuts, lots of greens.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Im worried that this pain wil come back, and if so will seek emergency care.

Is this the location of the pain?

Yes exact location.

Too much green smoothies meaning?

on average I have been making a smoothie for breakfast, either a bunch of spinach or kale, and fruits like bananas, strawberries mangoes, etc.
