its pretty common to have pain in the kidney area when treating
it could be the abx are giving your kidneys a bit of a hard time - but to my knowledge Mino is not known for that in persons with healthy kidney function
perhaps more likely its just a part of the process of treating - a kind of herxhimer reaction is common - typically this includes ramping up of symptoms that you had before - and new ones emerging.
pain, fevers, fatigue etc are common
it could be due to either mino or artemisinin - hard to tell apart if you started them at the same time
treating bart can cause die off of some extra infected red blood cells ad that could cause some extra load on your kidney - especially if you are seeing v dark urine ( by products of red blood cells )
