" I have had stones that the CT did not pick up.

If you are not peeing normal don't wait too long to see a doc, it's not good if the urine is backing up. "

" I have had this problem and they have done a CT scan, renal ultrasound, and IVP and they havent seen anything at all. But i know and they even said the pain i was haveing had to be stones. I am going to have a cytoscopy and CT scan with contrast november 20. I have had blood in urine for 3 years now but the main reason they are concerned is glucose level in urine is 57. So i dont know what to think.

Oh and also after they said i didnt have stone after urinating i passed like 20 little blkack specks. "

" tina, my doctor is also sending me to the gyno because I also have problems with ovarian cysts, though i dont know how that would produce kidney stone symptoms and blood in my urine. This has been very frustrating for me because the pain is unbearable and ive felt something pass through my urinary tract, maybe they will find something with both our cases, i really hope so, as im sure you want answers just as bad as i do. Keep me posted on your situation, and I will on mine!!!! Take care ((((hugs)))
