27 May 2024 POST-OP DEBRIEF

I thanked the urologist for successfully removing the kidney stone. He wants to see me just before my birthday in November and will require me to have another ultrasound on my bladder. Meanwhile, he has prescribed a tablet to be taken once a day, designed to combat gout, which shares uric acid as a symptom with kidney stones. The hope is that the tablet will prevent a stone from forming.
