Besides cranberry, what's good for kidney health, I'm off everything for awhile and they are hurting. Not sure why.

How much water are you taking in daily?, also how much do you weigh?

I take about a gallon a day, I'm 255lbs........I may up it by a gallon and see if it helps.

I'd try uping the H20 to at least 2 gallons a day if not more!, a good rule of thumb is 1 gallon for every 100 lbs.

Holy crap!!! I don't like that rule at all (as I have a bitch bladder). I'm at 230 and I drink about a gallon and a half a day and all I do is piss. I get up probably 3/4 times a night to go too. If I drank another gallon, I don't know WTF I'd do...probably buy some diapers. */

well what you can do is avoid anything stresful to kidneys.. the list is so large I would reccomend doing a search rather then me typing it out, also whats previously listed is basically true, if you want to cleanse them keep H20 at a constant high, if you are ever thirsty thats not a good sign..
