QUESTION: I havent had the cyst on my kidney all my life it just showed up.
I will be going to the dr on Monday for this is there any ? that i should ask?????
Answer
From your last statement, you had some type of scan on your kidney that did not show a cyst then this one did? If that is the case, the urologist needs to know that. I assumed this was the first eval of the kidney and they saw the cyst, most have been there forever, just not seen because they weren't looked at.
So I would ask about that and whether the stones are obstructing anything... if so, they have to come out.
