If you pass them, be sure to get them analyzed to see what they are mado of....sometimes it is something in your diet that can be avoided...kidney stones consist of different stuff in different people....check it out if you can

They might be too big to pass.  I had stones too big and were stuck in my kidney.  I had to have a lypotripsy (sp?) and a stent put in so they could all pass.  But while they were stuck in my kidney, they doctor said they were bouncing around in there when the kidney filled with fluid.  That was what my pain was.  You probably should go get the scan and get checked you dont want to mess around.  If one of those stones gets stuck in any of the tubes, you could be in more trouble than you need.

but you never know.. they may have grown somewhat..how is the pain now? has it got any easier? I don't know how it works in the states but are you able to ring the doctor and get a little advice maybe?

2006 was the last time but they had been the same size for at least three years before that
