Pain is different now?
- Strategy
- Patient journey
A few days ago, I posted about not knowing what to do because the pain was unbearable. Went to the ER for the third time in a week, and they finally gave me flowmax and ketorolac. Percs do not work anymore. Said the 5mm stone is at the end of my ureter.
I wake up this morning at 4am, the back pain is 5/10 bad. But my stomach. God damn my stomach is cramping and nauseous. I threw up as soon as I got up. I gotta take the ketorolac with food, so im slowly eating saltines.
Mild stinging when I pee. The back pain is still present, but not as bad. Constipated as fuck, slight movement last night though.
When will this nightmare end. Ive missed so much work. This wakes me up at 4am every night. Is it still not in my bladder?

Sorry for you! I am in the situation with a 6mm one stucked in my distal ureter, 13mm from the UVJ!(I guess this means close to the bladder)! I found out about the stone, 2 months ago on a CT scan bcz of a huge pain that put me in ER! They say mine is stucked/blocked/lodged! I really hope it will be dislodged and fall into the bladder definitely with 3-4 liters of water daily, Silodosin(better than Tamsulosin/Flomax they say) and movement! I hope you will feel better soon!
