i have just been diagnosed with kidney stones, the pain is horrific. I went for an ultrasound and that is how they discovered I had 1 kidney stone in each kidney. Your video is really helpfu as i wondered how they dealt with the pain and a and e.

[@milkjamjuice]

You poor thing, going through that so young! I’m glad you’re feeling better. Thanks for this video; I just got diagnosed with my first kidney stones today and have to work on flushing them out.

[@RosieRevolts]

I'm so sorry you have to go through that!

[@robertjamisola8518]

I had my ECSWL in 2017 for a lodged stone large in size in my left ureter, now I am watching your story while having this ordeal of passing the stone out of my right ureter

[@raven.V]

It's so hard to get comfortable when you're passing one. I couldn't stay still, but the one position that allowed me to feel a little relief was laying on my back with a pillow under my lower back (put it on the side that was hurting the most). It only helped for about 5 minutes, I was still in extrutiating pain, but even that 1% relief felt like Heaven. I went to the ER and they said I had 3, and passed 1 so far so only 2 left. I went home and ab 1 month later I began passing my second one. It took DAYS to pass. I had to call off work and stay home from classes because I was really sick. For about 1.5-2 months after that one had passed, I would randomly run fever and get really ill. I went to a nephrologist and he sent me to the ER immediately for kidney infection, stones, and possible sepsis. I didn't want to go bc medical bills are really expensive but if I didn't go, he said I'd have kidney failure and maybe die from the infection spreading in my blood. I ended up having an obstruction and my 3rd stone was trapping the infection behind it. He said I was lucky to still be here, bc the infection was really bad since I let it go for so long. Bad on my part- but again, healthcare bills are ridiculous. My heart rate resting was 150bpm even when I was sleeping. I got surgery and that recovery pain was even worse than the stones themselves. Absolutely horrific. I feel like stones are sometimes just brushed off, but they can be really serious. They also told me to increase water intake and avoid certain foods like spinach, peanuts, tea, chocolate, etc. I followed that to a T and have developed even more stones since. My mom gets them so I hope the genetics don't keep me having them for the rest of my life :( Wishing the best for you!!

[@megan8765]

I'm 21. I had a similar-ish experience. Woke up with pain that got worse, vomited from it, went to the ER and found out. The pain is no joke. I literally told my friend (who took me to the ER) that it felt like I was in labor. The CT showed a 2mm stone. I can't imagine how painful it is to pass a larger stone... Lol I think that if you can survive kidney stone pain, you can survive anything else.

[@RosieRevolts]

I'm so sorry you had to go through that! It's truly terrible, but it does seem like you could survive any other pain after 😂

[@chocohellokitty]

How long did it take to pass after it passed from your kidneys? Did you do anything to help it pass??

[@jackcoleman1784]

For the record the pain with kidney stones is wildly inconsistent. I've known people that have passed upwards of 6 mm with little to no pain. I passed a 3mm using only Tylenol and Ibuprofen in the late stage. You can have a 2mm or less and have it be the worst pain of your life then pass a larger one with less pain. The reason is because the stones come in different shapes and depending on a combination of shape and size the pain can be different. If you get a "ninja death star" you'll be in for a hell of a trip as opposed to a smoother one.

[@RE4L72]

2mm here too, it was hell but only lasted 3 days.

[@joeglennaz]

I’m so sorry you had that. I’ve had kidney stone attacks twice in my life and they are very painful. Make sure you save that nausea medication in case you ever need it in the future. I don’t know what they gave you but if they gave you a Zofran that is a great nausea medicine does not make you tired it’s not contraindicated with other medicines it just works so well so just keep that on hand. I’m glad you got better. I was went to the ER of course each time and they hook me up to an IV the first time they had to give me seven doses of morphine before they could control The pain. In both cases they did a CAT scan on me and confirmed it was a kidney stone. Best of luck to you

[@RosieRevolts]

I'm pretty sure they gave me Zofran. Both times I got that through an IV, then they gave me a prescription just in case I have another one. They confirmed that it was kidney stones through several ultrasounds and now I have to get checkups at a kidney specialist. Did you have to change your diet after having them? I have to eat low oxalate and drink tons of water every day. Us kidney stone survivors need to stick together

[@cryptoeasy13]

I have 4 kidney stones in my left kidney, the total size of them is around 3.1 Cm & thickness 2.3 Cm..... I already had PCNL 5 years ago again they regrow. I Need your prayers & support on this difficult time of my life.

I just had the one. 8mm, a smaller than average ureter and a 20% chance of passing it on my own. They had to remove it surgically. It sucked. The stone pain sucked and the stent sucked worse. It was on a string and the slightest tug felt like stepping on a lego.

Girl I just passed a kidney stone yesterday and I wanted to know how other people’s experience was because no one I know has had one I’m only 19 btw and I found out I had it way easier than everyone on here! And it was still the worst experience of my life! I woke up two days ago with pain in my lower back and I thought it was my period and then after 30 minutes of crying it just stopped and I was fine but the next morning which was yesterday I woke up at 8 with the worst back and abdomen pain on my right side and I after an hour I started throwing up and sweating and I couldn’t sit still but I was about to pass out and after an hour of that I felt the stone pop out and then I peed a lot it was so crazy I almost called 911! I give major major props to you for getting through multiple days of pain like wow queen you are tough as nails girl!

[@RosieRevolts]

Thank you! I'm so sorry that you had to go through that! They're so terrible, I hope you never have to pass any more! After my second one, I started going to a specialist and haven't passed any since last September. I'm glad you found my video so we can relate!

[@cfonde]

I just had a ureteroscopy 4 days ago, with stent for a 8mm stone, as well as a few smaller stones in my left kidney. While the procedure is not a walk in the park, I have had very minimal issues post-op. -- The worst part for me was, immediately after surgery I was in some pretty intense pain, and they discharged me about 20 minutes after I woke up. The ride home was excruciating, as every bump in the road was felt, and the seat belt was digging into my left side aggravating my stent. Apparently, they gave me some extra pain killers before I was discharged. My GF said I was asking for more pain medication, to which the nurse gave some additional pills of "something". -- So, I agree. Ask the O.R. nurse to give you as much pain killer as they will allow just as soon as you're able to take it immediately following surgery. -- The GOOD news is, once we arrived home after about a 40 minute ride, the drugs started to kick-in, and I was feeling a bit better after being able to lay down again. For several hours, I tried drinking water, Crystal Light, tea, anything,....but I was already feeling quite bloated, and was NOT able to pee for several hours. -- The first pee was the absolute worst! You're entirely correct. It felt like urinating razor blades. Nausea set-in, and I felt like I wanted to vomit, as well as the pressure applied to the left kidney during urination. That "pain" took about 10 minutes to subside, but each subsequent urination got progressively better. Taking AZO seemed to help, and by the 2nd day, the burning urination had mostly subsided. Taking the combination of drugs I was prescribed, I was actually feeling somewhat "comfortable" later that day, and into that evening. By Day 4, I am mostly comfortable except for very minor stent aggravation, which I am managing by taking Extra Strength Tylenol. My stent comes out in another 12 days, and hopefully all is well after that,.....except I need to have the right kidney done at some point, as I had stones in BOTH kidney's. Thanks for posting your video, and allowing us to share our stories.

I currently have multiple stones and a kidney infection and I’m 24, I started getting stones when I was 21 and have probably passed 4 in that time. I inherited it from my dad, I feel you girl. I’ve had two children and it’s equal if not more painful then childbirth.

[@Orangewood5]

Sorry you had to go through all that. Next time you’ll recognize the pain and just go to the ER and get some pain meds and fluids via IV. Spare yourself all the pain and sickness. IV Torodol followed by some oral tablets worked great for me. Remember you’re in charge of your health and don’t be afraid to push them for what you need. I’ve been there and it sucks

[@Crayator-tu4jy]

Torodol can make some people more nauseous. Most of the time they will just give you the IV port just for easy way to get medicine. I will be going back after finding out last night with my CT scan the my stine is too large to pass. 😢 damn the pain is crazy !

[@TheAerovons]

Keep drinking lots of water daily, it will help prevent another stone. Also, look up on the internet what foods are bad for forming kidney stone, like potatoes, tea, spinach, etc. Good luck to you!

[@nagibkanaan2464]

10 minute wait ??!!! 😩 I have kidney stones right now and had to wait 10 hours before they moved us into a room

[@RosieRevolts]

Oh no! It was late at night for me so there weren't too many people there. I got to go in first because I was worse than other people in the ER

[@jackcoleman1784]

Yeah I'm in a small city in the U.S. and when I went I told them I might have renal failure because I had a previous doctor tell me she thought I might be in kidney failure due to a lot of protein in my urine. They took seven hours to see me when they were told I might be in renal failure. They literally cleared out the entire ER waiting room and even saw peopoe that came in after me when I could have been in renal failure. Turned out I had a 3mm kidney stone but still shit was ridiculous. Then they sent me home with five five mg oxycontin for the pain of a 3mm stone. Healthcare in this country is an abomination.

[@cherylreichardt]

I've passed alot of those! One got stuck and I was in the worst pain. They gave me meds thinking it would pass on its own. It stayed in me for a week. I ended up having to have surgery. It wasn't big. It was just shaped weird. My best friend just had one a few days ago. Awful thing to experience huh? We joke that we gave birth! Glad you're okay!

[@RosieRevolts]

Yeah they’re terrible! I can’t believe you had to have surgery to remove it, that sounds awful! I hope your best friend is doing better now!

[@cherylreichardt]

@@RosieRevolts Funny but they gave my friend the same medication meant for men with prostrate problems hoping it would open the tube wider for the stone to pass. My friend seems to be okay thanks but I was mad at that ER doctor because she should have seen that it would have never passed by the shape it was. I had extra agony until a urologist saw me and got me into surgery immediately. I haven't had any real bad experiences but I'm sure I'm passing small ones because the doctor said I was loaded with small ones. It's diet like chocolate which I won't give up. I'll risk it besides he just told me lots of water is the best you can do! Thanks for sharing your video. I hope you have been well since it was posted!😊
