Will the pain when urinating w/stent pass?
I have a UTI the prevents them from going in and surgically removing a very troublesome stone. But as you all know running around with a blocked ureter is a recipe for a dead kidney. Accordingly I had a stent inserted this morning.
The stent they're using is shaped like a shepherd's hook on both ends. That is one end is hooked and sits in the kidney with the end of the hook portion very close to the entrance to the ureter.
The other end into the bladder, thereby maintaining stent positioning.
Taking a piss with this thing in is agony. It feels exactly like the high point of an attack. Will this pass? opiates tramadol ketorolac nothing touches this.
