What Questions Should I Ask The Urologist If Have Small Stones In Both The Kidneys And Pressure After Urination?

I recently had a CT scan which showed that I had small stones in each kidney. I have been on antibiotics since 12/18. Cipro at first, which made me feel horrible and like my skin was on fire, and then I was switched to 14 days of Bactrim. That seems to help, but I still feel pressure after urination. I have an appointment with a urologist on Monday, but I don't now what to expect. What types of questions should I be asking him?

Hi,
As you have kidney stones, your problem may remain for long time and at the same time recurrent urinary tract infection will take place.
While consulting urologist you ask about,
Is it possible that stone might come by it self with taking plenty of water ?
Does stone will come out with IV fluids ?
Any damage in kidney due to stones ?
Can have recurrent UTI ?
Any chance of having kidney stones in future ?
What food or vegetables not to be taken ?
Stones are of Calcium oxalate or Phosphate ?
Ok and take care.
