Any thoughts, based on experiences, on DS1's mystery illness related to all things urinary?

He's just been referred to a Paediatrician following Kidney ultrasound which was inconclusive.

These are the symptoms of a full blown attack:

Extreme (can't move) tummy pain, navel level and lower which moves and is fairly random but quite often features pain central and just below navel.

Pale skin, slightly yellow/greenish

Teeth chattering

Vomits

Urine is normal colour but is opaque, bit like lemon barley squash and when it settles in a testing pot it looks as though there is about 1.5 tablespoons of salt in the bottom.

Infection has been ruled out.

Poor thing - sounds awful. Sounds like he needs more tests, there are other kidney tests that are done following a scan.

Could the sediment be tiny kidney stones?
