hello
welcome to hcm
well you have not mentioned the SIZE OF YOUR KIDNEY STONES...kidney stones of size less than 10 mm can be expelled out by certain medicines but kidney stones of size greater than 10 mm usually require surgery or laser therapy....if the size of your kidney stone is less than 10 mm and if i were your treating doctor i would have prescribed you TABLET CYSTONE and TABLET URISPAS so you can talk to your doctor about these 2 medicines and get them prescribed if your treating doctor find it appropriate for you...
there is no problem in having sex if someone has kidney stones so yes you can lead a normal sex life,no issues with that...
hope i have cleared all your doubts but if you have any further doubts,plzz dont hesitate to ask
regards
hcm
