Suggest Treatment For Kidney Stone

Hi I was told last week I had kidney stones. I am 62 years old Female. I take no medicines at all. I consider myself in good shape and exercise as much as I can on a daily basis. The doctor just tooka blood test this morning to check on my thyroid to see if it was causing any calcium build ups in my body to effect the calcium kidney stones. Can you explain how that might work to me?

Thyroid has parathyroid glands which control calcium levels and probably your doctor was checking their function if it is affected he might start meds accordingly.
