Suggest Remedy For Kidney Calculi

Hi. for the first time in my life I was told by an ultra sound that I have 2 kidney stones, one in each kidney, each about 1/2 cm. I am scared to death, not knowing what to do. The Dr says just drink a LOT of water and it should PASS or break down. I am now starting to feel an on and off sort of throbbing mild crampish kind of pain in my right front side. I am a woman. Question: am I supposed to wait for pain to arrive at any time soon? Could it pass without more pain? It seems too LARGE to do this without pain. HOW could I help pass it quickly before it maybe grows and becomes harder to pass? Tired of drinking water. Anything I can take naturally without medicine or do I need medicine? I prefer alternative or holistic or homeopathic remedies. I also recently discovered -incidentally through an MRi from a minor car accident, 1 .9 cm benign fluid-only cyst on each kidney. Are cysts and kidney stones related? I have never had a healthv issue in my life. My glucose was high at 98 and the AC1 hemoglobin at 6.1 high risk for pre-diabeyic type 2 THIS IS AN AWFUL DISEASE NOT IN MY FAMILY I am thin and maybe not enough of a love life, still single at 49 no kids hoping to have ONE with my commitment-phobic finally wanting marriage AND a kid boyfriend. EVERYthing at once, and so many needs. Please help me to feel at peace with all of these things. I don t know how the different conditions affect EACH OTHER. I just started taking a sugar controller herbal tea yesterday. I generally eat healthy my whole life and am shocked by all of this? Age maybe? No excuse. Not everyone has these things. I love life , a loooong life and want to get rid of the sugar problem, the stones and the systs and high choleterol NOW before anything happens. Thank you I am sorry if you need a credit card but I don t have one to pay anything Can I have one free question?

Hello
Thanks for query.

You have been detected to have stones of a size of 5 mm in both the kidneys.

Assuming that you do not have severe pain I would say that these are non obstructing stones of a small size and will pass out through urine and nothing to be worried .

They will pass down naturally without any medications.You have to ensure that you would drink 4-5 liters of waters in 24 hours at regular intervals in order to pass 1500 ml of urine .

Avoid spicy food and milk products ,chocolates,cabbages in excess.

As regards two cysts detected in kidneys, they are of no significance at all They are from birth and benign in nature and does not require any treatment at all.

As regards Diabetes the blood sugar levels of 98 and HbA1c of 6.1 does not signify Diabetes.Hhowever regular moderate exercise like walking for 45 minutes with diet control will keep you away from being Diabetic.

Please be assure yourself that you are enjoying good health ,What ever symptoms you have are due to anxiety.
