I'm trying to get rid of a 15mm stone but I have no idea if that's even possible on its own. My appointment isn't until December and I really don't think I can wait that long. So what's the biggest one you've ever passed and what did you end up doing?

A stone that size usually won't pass by itself. My personal record was a 3mm and that thing hurt like crazy coming out. Most likely they'll need to go in, break it up, and pull out the pieces. That's what I had to do with a 6mm one

5mm was the biggest I passed I think
