Testrenal calculi: I can't really recommend any home tests or treatments for you to rule out if you have kidney stones. However, if you consult with your physician s/he can determine what testing would be appropriate for your situaiton. Good luck.

Agree with Dr. F: Diagnosis of kidney stones usually requires imaging studies and you need to see your doctor to ascertain which, if any testing, you may need. Wish you good health!
