Went to the ER last Wednesday (September 30th) with my first stone😭 CT measured it at 5 mm and at my left UVJ. After getting the pain to go down, I was sent home with Flomax and an NSAID. Fast forward, stone has still not passed almost a week later.

The biggest issue is I fly from the U.S. to Italy next Tuesday for a 10 day trip around the Alps. Has anyone done long haul, international travel while passing a stone? The pain has been manageable with prescription meds. Just preparing for worst case scenario. Any experience or advice (customs with meds, plane pressure affecting pain, etc.) is appreciated!

The urologist they referred me to can’t get me in until the week after I get back. I’ve been drinking water, water with lemon/crystal lite, and walking a ton to try to get the stone out.

Anyone have recent experience on living at Bexley Stockyards? I toured and fell in love with it, however I’ve read some bad reviews about recent mold in both buildings. It’s the only thing holding me back from applying.

I’m specifically looking at walk out units on the 1st floor. If you’ve had experiences with mold there, are they doing anything to actively get rid of it?
