Helo and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me assure you that, all renal infections are treatable.
You are a stone former, and should have had a metabolic stone work-up. The tests for this include, urine calcium,phosphorus,uric acid,blood creatinine,calcium,phosphorus,uric acid, and oxalates.A stone should have had a biochemical analysis also. What are your present symptoms, to suspect a renal infection.You see an Urologist, with reports of urine routine and culture,blood creatinine,uric acid,sugar and US-KUB,scan.
If you want my expert opinion,you can send reports as a direct question.
