Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Renal stones is a benign condition and impacted stones are painful. Once the acute episode of pain subsides, patient may lead a normal life till the next episode. Removal of calculi is not recommended in the times of pain as infection is likely.
Your urologist must have scheduled the appointment on availability basis.
Please do not worry.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.

Wishing you good health.
Regards.
