Are we at higher risk for kidney stones after lapband?

I have never heard this. Gall bladder yes, but not kidney stones.

The Lap Band has nothing to do with your kidneys.

However, a sustained high Protein diet can adversely effect them. I actually had this happen years ago when on the Atkins diet. Very, very painful and the biggest reason I refuse to go high protein/low carb long term again.

getting dehydrated can cause kidney stones too! but most kidney stones are Protein based. so protect your kidneys, keep your protein within your doctor guidelines and drink plenty of fluids.

Actually, the most common kidney stones are Calcium based, not Protein. I had them years ago, and had to have a partial nephrectomy to remove them.
