Kidney Stone - A Caution

Its a fact that most General (Practioner) Doctor is not clear or aware what could happen after a Kidney Stone attack.

Having a worst experience on this problem, I would like to alight some points regarding this. The situtation has happened to my father and would like to share the same with you all .

He had some Kidney Stone problem during 2005-2006. He got stuck with Stone issue twice in that span. Later it was diagnosed by a General Physician.

Steps Taken by the Physician

1. Trips (Glucose).
2. Anti Biotic Injection.
3. Pain Killer Tablet.
4. Some other tablets after the stone got released.


So after a day or two he is normal.

This is all that happened twice.

Then he was normal till mid of 2007. Later he got little issue of BP. Tablets were prescribed and it was followed as mentioned by the physician. During the course he was doing better. At times there was some spikes in pressure which taken care periodically.

During initial 2008, he had backache which made him uncomfortable to do any work. Feeling that having a scan of his entire back could help, which the Radiologist said that possible chances of problem in Kidney. This drove us giving a emergency drive to a Kidney Research Institute, where it was reported as (both) the Kidney is not functioning in normal condition.

With suggestion/inputs from friends, we took him to Vellore CMC Hospital where the Neurologist/Nephralogist did a thorough scan of his body and reported that he is stuck with a chronical kidney infection, which has caused Kidney Shrunking, BP which was identified as a Normal Pressure by the earlier physician who did check-up in 2007.

Doctor from CMC informed that the Pressure has settled inside the Kidney which start pulling the energy of Lungs and started causing trouble to its functioning.

Doctor also added that the physician who had taken treatment for the Kidney Stone should have advised to take Blood Test, Urine Test and Stool Test after a week or two after the Stone release. As the Blood Test which was not performed in right time caused this havoc problem. This resulted causing blood impurement, and increase in Blood Urea & Creatine which is a deadly one after a certain limit.

Doctor prescribed medicines and suggested some diet control which is good for his health. Also he informed that people who are generally affected by Chronical Disease should not be affected either by Fever or Dysentry which would result in energy lost and forcing more work to Lung, Liver, Kidney which would result in serious mishap internally in the body.

Currently he is under treatment, where the issue is little bit in tact.

General Note : The patient do not have any habit of Smoking, Drinking or other deadly habits.

So there is no limitation in getting affected/abducted by this disease for anyone.

Pains that we (the patient) had is not explanatory :(. So please be caution and do have a periodic health checkups.

Some points as conclusion

Please do make a follow up of Blood Test, Urine & Stool Test after the Kidney Stone infection.
Kind of Test that needs to be carried out.
Check points in Blood : Pottasium, Creatine, Sodium, Blood Urea, Zinc (Major ones) & all other normal test.
Check points in Urine : Blood mixture if any (and its ratio), Sodium, Pottasium, Urea
In Generall, please consume normal amount of water as per your body weight (BMI) and have food in time regularly.

Please let me know your suggestion or queries if any.
