Hi and thanks for the query,

Important aspects of your medical history like hypertension, ischemic heart disease and diabetes are important to be considered, A clinical review coupled with a chest x ray, electrocardiogramme and cardiac ultrasound could really be very useful. Kidney function tests and an abdominal ultrasound to ascertain the sizes of the kidney stones if any, kidney size , shape and structure could be very useful.

The opinion of an internist for a complete review could be most welcome on my part. Thanks and kind regards,
