hi.. im 14 and im wondering , if you have kidney disease/ problems and have a kidney stone will they ever wait?hello :) im 14 years old and in the middle of being diagnosed with some kind of kidney disease, i have severe calcification/ nephrocalcinosis in my right kidney and moderate in my left.. the kidneys have loads of stones stuck in them and they can drop at any time. i've already had 2 opperations to remove some stones in my uretra ( u no the tubes) and i had a stent put in in both sides, then i got the stent removed a week after because it was casing me too much pain, and had the loose stones taken out of my kidneys . this was about 6 weeks ago and i havent been to school since october , i was in hospital for 2 weeks.. i was wondering.. i think i have another stone that has fallen down, and im going to hospital on thursday but would they ever just leave it to come out by itself ? even with my kidneys? i would rather they didnt because im really scared of weeing 1 out but yeahh.,. THANKYOU !! i will happily answer any questions :)

How can you be in the middle of being diagnosed? Kidney stones can be zapped away with radio isotropic today, where they use a special frequency of radio waves to dissolve them so you can pee them out. I remember my mom having this done for me when I was younger. Please don't be scared about that. They just hurt all over right now. I never experienced the stents though, as those days were not about stents then either. Try to keep a positive attitude in everything you do, this will show all over in the work you do and the pride you have. Please keep your chin up too. I know how much things like pain will get in the way and if you are in the hospital you are already in the best place you can be for what you have anyway. School will be there and you can always have anyone pick up some work you can do to try and stay with some of the things like reading and forget the things you can't do anything about. It might sound like a bummer being behind in the social part like dances and proms too. You'll always be eligible for these anyways. You should go to them if possible so you can keep up with the others your age and others will know you when you can go back. Good luck and God Bless

Well, sometimes if they get too big, they have to take out the whole kidney(s). Pray they leave on their own, but it doesn't sound good. Are you taking lots of calcium pills or not drinking enough water/fluids or just having bad luck/genetics? You are very young to be having such severe problems...

If they are small yes you can pass them ask the doctor if that is possible.
An Xray can tell if they are too large to pass.
