I have had kidney stones for the last 25 years. About a month ago, I had surgery to remove the stones in my tube that were causing issues. The CT scan about a week ago showed calcifications in my kidneys. The urologist said I could have surgery to scrape the roughness off the areas (as I am still seeping tiny bits of blood) or just watch it and see what happens. I don t know what I should do....
Hi, Its better for you to get the surgery done as the stones can lead to CKD & make your condition even worse. It's better to act early and prevent it than to wait and see. Hope you have got the serum calcium and renal stone investigations done. Get an ultrasound done and get to know the extent of calcifications present. I would recommend an ultrasound than CT in view of radiation effects and if the ultrasound is not conclusive then you can go for at CT. Do take few analgesics under your doctors' guidance. Feel free to post any further questions regarding your conditionThank you
