I had a kidney stone episode almost two years ago. The stone passed and the KUB my GP ordered once the stone was gone showed that everything was clear. Fast forward two years too today. I have been thinking about starting learning how to fly and I have read that the kidney stone could be a problem with the issuance of a third class medical. What do I need to do before scheduling the appointment with the AME? Do I need to go get another current KUB before going to the AME, and is there any type of workup testing (blood draws, urineanalysis testing) that needs to be performed. Another question I have is how will this affect the possibility of a second class medical at a later date?
