Hello, I m a sixty one year old woman. I have had kidney stones for last thirty years. Butlastfour years I have been diagnosed with four large stones but due to fact I have Medicare they said they won t remove them, so two years ago I went in hospital for second time, stone pain and Medicare was once again going to send me home. In thirty years I have not one time been able to loose stones at home they are always multiples and to large I m told, and last hospitalization they found mass in my left lung and said that took priority over stones but they sent me home not taking care of either problem again saying it was insurance problem. I have no family, am legally blind , my question is, if I repeatedly have stones shifting and pushing and then shifting and then moving over and over will this eventually cause damage to my kidneys as I have been sick for a week, something different, painful, not. Stones but I hurt and I want to lay downfall day, and as I am hyper and don t believe in laying around no matter how sick I am this thing that started a week ago is scaring me. Thank you for any information you can pass on. Judy kreger
