Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

It is possible that there is a less serious cause leading to your pain. If a kidney stone is ruled out then we must see for other causes like gall bladder, appendicitis, bowel disorders, liver problems etc. Sometimes small stones in gall bladder are not well visualised in CT scan and a ultrasound scan might help.

You may send across your CT scan images or report directed to me (Dr.Vivek Chail, Radiologist at HCM) and I will have a detailed look and give you my opinion. Please contact customercare@healthcaremagic.com in case you are unable to upload your report or images.
