Certainly : Kidney stones often come and go, but can also stay and cause really bad complications. They could also be a sign of an internal disorder. See your doctor for updated imaging studies, find out why you're developing recurrent kidney stones, and to to see if there is anything you can do differently to prevent these. Your doctor may need to work with a urologist to help get you on a stone-free path.
