You would need to go to a urologist and he would decide if you need a CT
scan.
As I said I was given three lithotripsy treatments to break the kidney
stones. If they are not stopping the flow of urine, they might not do surgery.
Every so often I get tiny pieces of kidney stones in my ileal conduit bag.
I have a ileal conduit, because I have bladder cancer in my bladder was
removed. I don't like to go under anesthetic unless I have to, because the
likelihood of incubation.

Has anyone else had their catheter stop out of the blue even though your
output is clear? What do you do to prevent it? I would hate to irrigate more
often because I'm at the limit my insurance "medi/medi" covers.
I drink crystal light also..
