1 Symptoms of Kidney Stones
Once you arrive at the emergency room, the nurse will take
your vital signs and the doctor will give you an primary physical
exam. To begin with, the doctor is going to try and rule out
appendicitis.
Next, you will be asked to give a urine sample so they can
do a urnine analysis, check for blood in the urine and many other
things.
At some point, if you are still experiencing severe pain,
they will give you an injection of analgesic. They may give it
to you before, or after your CT scan or x-rays. While the lab
is testing the urine, the doctor will undoubtedly send you to
the radiology department to have x-rays taken. This is relatively
quick and the radiologist technician will take about 6 x-rays
or so.
If the results of the x-ray come back inconclusive, they may
ask you to get a CT scan. This scan gives the physician a clearer
idea of what is going on than x-rays can. It will only take about
5 minutes in the CT machine.
Now, the doctor will have a pretty good idea if you are experiencing
kidney stones or not. If the
doctor still isn't sure, you may be asked to have an IVP test.
An IVP test is nothing more than a series of x-rays taken
over the period of about an hour. After your first IVP x-ray
the nurse will give you an IV and inject a special dye that shows
up on an x-ray. The dye is clear, but will glow on the x-ray
and reveal to the doctor if there are any blockages.
It is becoming more common to simply have a CT scan after
the dye injection as a CT scan will give the doctor more information
than an x-ray, but both methods will work. When these tests are
over, the doctor will know if you are dealing with kidney stones.
