I am on the case.
She has been told that being in "wilful denial" is not the correct response and that after 11 days and she needs to take action.
She's nodding and agreeing and scouring Google for some self-diagnosis more toward "What it is not" than what it is.
She's an adult, she knows she cannot avoid forever. There's no fever, no unusual gut or UTI activity, none of the kidney-stone type symptoms.
I have suggested a good shot of Ralgex on the affectd area to see if its a muscle tear under all that "cuddles". But she's been popping pain-killers for nearly 2 weeks.
