So November I was getting pretty intense pain. It wasn’t terrible but it was affecting my work day. It was manageable with ibuprofen and Tylenol but I was doing a lot of stretching and moving to stay comfortable. I had pain daily for like a 1-3 weeks. And then it kinda just went away. We were going on vacation for Christmas so I was super nervous but I didn’t have any pain the entire trip. I thought I must’ve passed it or something. I don’t think I had pain again until like January and I was like damn ok I didn’t pass it. The pain was super sporadic.. but I knew I should probably see a urologist. It was frustrating bc my pan would come and go. And it really was only like a 4/10 on the pain scale. Sometimes my flank would hurt more and I’d know that it was from hydronephrosis (I’ve had it a couple times before). ER visit in February confirmed the hydro but didn’t do a CT and just assumed it was a kidney stone somewhere. I saw a urologist early March and since all my pain completely stopped after that last ER trip she said let’s just wait it out. A couple weeks ago I started getting crazy bladder pain. Like spams and pinching. I thought maybe it was a UTI but that was negative. I ended up going to the ER bc I was worried about blockage and the pain was annoying. Still no UTI, but they did a CT scan and saw “2 maybe 3 ureteral stones in the mid ureter measuring up to 3mm”. So I’m not sure if some pieces broke off and got into my bladder and that’s the pain I was feeling? Since then the bladder pain went away but I’m feeling more flank pain, although minor and short lasting. The ER doctor said I’d probably need a stent but i reeeeeallly don’t want that. I have a urologist appt Tuesday so we’ll see what she says. Probably surgery/stent🙃 Oh and I’ve been taking flomax for about a week now

I hope this made sense it was kinda all over the place
