Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i must advise you, to confirm, if you've kidney stones first.
Kidney stones can be clearly seen on an ultrasound / CT scan.
So no doubt should remain in your mind.
You're advised to avoid taking morphine and diclofenac, without knowing what causes your pain. Diclofenac also can cause damage to kidney.
See a doctor and after examination,he'll advise you regarding the scan.
For my expert opinion on your scan and report,send it as a direct question.
