Hi. for the first time in my life I was told by an ultra sound that I have 2 kidney stones, one in each kidney, each about 1/2 cm. I am scared to death, not knowing what to do. The Dr says just drink a LOT of water and it should PASS or break down. I am now starting to feel an on and off sort of throbbing mild crampish kind of pain in my right front side. I am a woman. Question
HelloThanks for query. You have been detected to have stones of a size of 5 mm in both the kidneys. Assuming that you do not have severe pain I would say that these are non obstructing stones of a small size and will pass out through urine and nothing to be worried. They will pass down naturally without any medications. You have to ensure that you would Chat Doctor. Avoid spicy food and milk products, chocolates, cabbages in excess. As regards two cysts detected in kidneys, they are of no significance at all They are from birth and benign in nature and does not require any treatment at all. As regards Diabetes the blood sugar levels of 98 and HbA1c of 6.1 does not signify Diabetes. Hhowever regular moderate exercise like walking for 45 minutes with diet control will keep you away from being Diabetic. Please be assure yourself that you are enjoying good health, What ever symptoms you have are due to anxiety.
