I had a bout of severe pain 2 nights ago, and had to go to the ER. My kidney stone is around 6mm large, and I started taking pain meds once I got home. I had no further pain while on the meds. Today is the first day I haven’t taken the meds, and still no pain? Is this normal for kidney stone pain to come and go, or could this signify that the stone is already in the bladder? I have been urinating normally as well.

The urologist said he was having a hard time seeing the stone but went ahead with the procedure. When it was all said and done the doctor said he was never hitting the stone because the stones were fully intact and never even cracked. Since then my husband has had severe pain in that area. He has been back to the urologist several times and even our family doctor and they can find no reason for his chronic pain. Could the lithotripsy have done some damage? Has anyone been thru anything similar to this?

My girlfriend has been in severe pain for about a week and a half. The pain first presented as a headache, upper back and shoulder pain , and a general feeling of fatigue and poor health.
This was accompanied by a severe pain and burning while urinating , and brown urine.Also nausea , vomitting and diarrhea . There was a clear , odorless vaginal discharge for 24 hours or so.
A physician found blood traces in urine, and started her on pyridium and loritab for pain relief associated with kidney stones.
The pain has now localized to her lower right abdomen , and is sharp and stabbing at times.
Tests showed stones in the LEFT kidney, but the pain is localized on the right side.
I’m worried that more than one thiong is going on here… mainly appendicitis. Her physician seems to believe she is malingering for pain pills and is not acting in what I consider a timely fashion… reschelduling treatment for 10 days later.
This could be fatal if appendix ruptures.
So my question is , could pain from left-side kidney stones be referred to the right side? Or is there something else going on here?

Thanks in advance.

what do you do for pain

opiod blocker=naltrexone

its been said the pain from a kidney stone can be worse than child birth

percocet (narcotics) don’t work when you are on naltrexone

supposedly OTC like tylenol will help? i find that hard to believe…

is it true will tyleno really take away severe pain froma kindey stone
the naltrexone is NOT for a substance abuse problem
