Yes, and no... My Kidney stone, and later introduction to "Gout", or in my case pseudo Gout were calcium not uric acid related. Generally speaking Kidney Stones/Gout are attributed to dietary lifestyle.

It appears that my genetics/bloodline has a weird thing where around the mid 20's we get Kidney Stones and/or Gout. My father had a single incident of Kidney stone when he was in his mid 20's. I have a couple uncles who also did. I'm not 100% sure on them also having 'Gout'. At any rate, I had this pseudo gout a handful of times over the next couple years, but so far only the single kidney stone.
