In my urine report calcium oxalate was found and my doctor mentioned that in the future it could lead to kidney stones. Is this correct and how can I reduce the calcium oxalate?

Calcium oxalate crystals can be a sign of a tendency to form stones. To reduce the risk drink more water. Limit salt and high-oxalate foods like spinach - Reduce animal protein Please go ahead and get the 24 hour urine test done if the stone risk appears high, as this will help identify imbalances and guide prevention.
Dr. Bhanu Suggests...
Take a Urine Routine Test Test or Take a KFT with Electrolytes (Kidney Funtion) Test

What is a PBS test for blood?

I have been experiencing lower back pain since Monday which has become progressively worse. I have also been drinking excessive amounts of water about one pint every one and a half hours or less. I have a lack of appetite and feel full most of the time. I visited my GP and they checked my urine and blood pressure which were normal. I am going for blood tests on Monday and will wait for the results. Do you know what could be causing these symptoms? Thank you Jack.
