Kidney Stones?

I am 6 years post op next month May 20,2010, last year my labs started changing and showing high levels of creatinine and BUN. Recently, I was referred to a neprologist who ordered tests and ultrasounds. I await the results on May 4th. In the meantime, there is no family history of kidney stones or renal failure, etc. My daughter being the internet detective found a link between kidney stones and WLS and informed me of this. I got out my original fact sheets from my doctor in 2004 and he warned of the possibility of kidney stones, which I just ignored. I have lost 200 pounds. I drink water religiously. I love protein especially beef. I wonder if I DO HAVE kidney stones as the cause of my third stage renal failure? Anybody have an opinion? Verdonna GRDS/May 04.
