I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your kidney stones.
As per your history it seems to me you were in pain of renal colic. There are two types of medication one is alkalizing agent other antispasmodic with pain killer.
You can avoid antispasmodic with pain killer if you don't feel any more colic. You may continue the alkalyzer one and take it with plenty of fluids. There are two types of treatments for renal stones the lithotrypsy and surgical one. It depends upon the size of stone and it's position which one to be applied. There are some chances that it may be expelled with too much fluids too.
