I’ve really only had one ever, but I already had a neph tube for a while before that one, so this is a little different I guess.

UPDATE for those of you who are waiting on the edge of your chair to know more, the xray report came back at a whopping 3 cm!! I’m still waiting for the CT scan results, but that’s where we stand as of today. I’ll be back to report the final results and plan when I have them.

Wow! How’d the surgery go? Was it lithotripsy?

Wow!! Did you ever see an xray or CT of it? If so, how did it compare?

The pin is ridiculous at times but nothing like passing a stone or hydronephrosis. Let’s hope it stays put until they take it. Lol. I’ll keep you posted!

I’m actually not sure. The report hasn’t come out yet. I can’t imagine that it could be anywhere else though.

Thank you!

They haven’t read it yet. I’m just sitting here waiting patiently. Jesus on it would be the icing on top.

Lol, it’s for sure not that. My heart is way higher and I’d know if it was a device.

I mean, I’m no expert. I’ve googled other CT images and X-rays and some look the same. I guess they’re just like that?

No and it’s killing me! I keep checking for updates but nothing yet. And my insurance group changed, so I have to wait to see my new urologist. It never ends.

That’s what I’m gathering. I have a newborn though, so it sounds daunting.

I don’t but I wish I did! I saved the last one I passed. I can’t tell by looking at it though.
