What can I expect with MSK?

[StephMan]

I received a call from my doctor two days ago. She mentioned my ultrasound shows multiple stones in both of my kidneys. She said that she thinks I could have MSK or renal tubular acidosis. I am not going to lie, I am scared and confused. My grandpa died from ESRD when I was about 12. I remember a lot of trips for dialysis. I also remember he had a lot of pain. My question is where do I start and what can I expect? I have two young daughters, two grown children, and a grand daughter who need me. Please help! Please tell me what I can do to get better...
