Had surgery two years ago for kidney stones. The whole thing was just horrible and I told myself I would never go through it again. I have been good and kept up with drinking water each day. Now two years later I have two kidney stones again. Was putting surgery off but these are worse than the last ones. I called to set up a surgery date and they put me off until June 10th. Not sure I'm going to make it.

Ureteroscopy or lithotripsy? I’m the same way. I have had 2 ureteroscopies and had stents both times and I swear unless I have an obstruction, I will never have surgery for them again
