Is this amount of pain normal after stent placed.

F 27 this is my second time with a stent placed and it is unbearable. no matter how much water i drink, my bladder cramps. there is a constant pain in my groin down through my thigh. it hurts to walk. should i be concerned or is this considered normal.

the first time i had a stent placed, i was 25weeks pregnant, went septic, caught pneumonia, i was hospitalised the entire three-four weeks so being at home after the procedure is new to me.

You didn’t get any meds for bladder spasms?

Is it not helping then?

I have a stent as well, placed a few days ago, and I’m miserable. I feel much the same as you. I have floxwmax and the RX for the stronger Azo, but feel like it is doing nothing. My hip hurts, walking is uncomfortable, and it’s just awful. I’m so sorry you’re struggling too.
