I am a 20 year old female, and i have been diagnosed with kidney
stones after many visits in agonizing pain to the E.R.!!! I have now
learned that it is stuck in my ureter tube and is about the size of a
pen tip. My doctor thinks that surgery may be the route we will have
to go but we wont know for sure until next week. We are hoping that I
pass it before then, and if I havent then next week I will go for
another cat scan and see where it is at now. If it is still giving me
pain and it hasnt moved I can either wait for it to move naturally,
how ever long it takes, or we can do surgery.
SO.... what I would like to know is what some of you who have
had/have kidney stones think, and for some people ( women only m) to
tell me about their experiences with the surgery ( Pain level,
mobility after surgery, any bad things that happened, and how long you
were hospitalized after surgery, etc. ) and to hear some of you
stories about getting the stent pulled out!! ( Pain level, comfort
{did you feel it in you}, etc. ) so any info I can get would be
greatly appreciated!!!!!!! I am verry scared and very nervous, so
please help me!! THank You, KALEY
