Just started using Modafini (Modalert); has anyone else experienced pain in their...kidney(s)?

I was not on any sort of stack, so I am very certain it was a side-effect due to the Modafinil (Modalert) tablets I took... the first day 100 mg x 2 and the second day 200 mg x 2. A mild nagging pain - not sharp or overwhelming.
I did search the archives of Reddit but found very little. Although I am paying a scheduled visit to my physician tomorrow (part of a check-up) it is not something I can ask him: 1) I'm in Japan 2) he'd likely respond with WTF?! and freak out I am using medications that were not properly prescribed by a Japanese medical doctor.
As I indicated, the pain is mild and bearable. I'm just trying to figure out what the cause might be... will continued usage produce kidney stones from Hell? Otherwise, I plan to keep using...

Up your water consumption. Your liver will be taxed slightly while on it. It also induces and inhibits many CYP450 enzymes, so be careful of drug interactions.
