Hello
Thanks for query .
Based on the facts that you have posted it seems that have tendency to get recurrence of kidney stones with composition being calcium ,oxalate and uric acid .
The recurrence of stone is basically due to metabolic disordes of calcium and oxalates and one needs to follow strict dietary regime to prevent recurrence of stone .
Following regime if followed religiously will help to prevent the recurrence of stone .
1) Drink plenty of water 4-5 liters per day .This will help to avoid urine being concentrated and precipitate calcium salts in urine and there by prevent stone formation .
2) Take Calcium and Oxalate containing foods together during meals .This will bind up the Calcium and Oxalate in the stomach and not in kidney while urine is being produced in kidneys.
3) Avoid red meat ,organ meat .This will help to lower down uric acid levels in body and there by forming Uric acid stones
4) Avoid getting UTI .Infection of urine is tha commonest cause for stone formation .Hence aiding to get UTI will help to form stones .
5) Avoid alcohol and aerated drinks instead take lime juice and Citrate (Fresh fruits)which will help to avoid precipitation of calcium and there by stone formation .
6) Salt free diet with less sodium helps to prevent calcium absorption and to reduce stone formation.
This regime definitely helps to prevent recurrence .
