I am 3.5 months post op and I had persistent left side kidney pain. I went to the DR and I had a urine test that was positive for blood, and they tell me its looks as though I have passed a stone and now have an infection. This is a result of high protein diet, and not drinking enough water. Partially my own fault. I get so busy that I don't drink enough water. Now I am on antibiotics, pain meds and missing work. Not to mention the pain. I hope I can help someone else avoid this by stressing the importance of H20!
