There can be a lot of different reasons for stones and there are several types of stones too. Did the doc say if it was a calcium stone or uric acid stone?  If it was an uric acid stone, then maybe you're getting too much protein (for your system) and not drinking enough water.  If it was a calcium stone, then maybe you're getting too much vitamin D (ie;cod LIVER oil) or too much oxalate which is in a lot of good bb'g foods like spinach, peanuts, sweet potatoes... it could be any number of things  :-\ then again, it could be nothing or hereditary :-\   

Don't know about the added test  ???  Maybe someone from Hardcore could chime in.

in all honesty, he never classified it as that i officially passed a stone. the pee-pee test revealved only that i ws slightly dehydrayed. he saw no sign of infection or anything! (he was going by the symptons i told him...i ran a 101 fever for a day, took tylenol, it went down to normal, then back up to 100 1/2 on the 2nd day, took tylenol, then it was normal after that, and i had mild groin pain for a few days.
