I have had (For 5years) an ongoing problem with calcium based kidney
stones. While i can usually deal with the pain until a stone is lodged
in my urethra other problems are occurring. Especially at night i get
a fever and and hives which make it hard to sleep. Also when my left
lower kidney area bothers me the most my sweat smells almost like
urine! Before anyone says it i bath daily ,and my overall hygine is
fine. I just can't understand this urine thing i wonder if it means my
kidneys are rejecting/leaching out
toxins.....Don....loftyone(a)comcast.net

That's very doubtful given your symptoms. Symptoms of kidney failure
include swelling in your legs and feet, nausea and vomiting, fatigue,
etc. Look here for more information:

If you're that concerned a simple blood and urine test are all that
are needed to determine how well your kidneys are working. My advice
is for you to see your doctor so you can put your mind at ease.
