Urologist,  's  Response
Hello Samantha and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist,i understand your anxiety.CKD is possible,if tests confirm it.
As you've had kidney stones and infections since childhood,your kidney function can decrease,with time. You need to get examined by an Urologist.
Do the following tests : 1. Urine routine,culture and ACR.
2. Blood routine,creatinine,calcium,phoshorus,uric acid,electrolytes,RBS,LFT,and platelets.
3. Ultrasound-KUB, CT-IVU or a MRU,to know the kidney function status.
According to reports,further advise can be given.
You can send the reports to me,as a direct question,for an expert opinion.
