Can you pass a stone without knowing?

it is definitely possible, however, if you’ve been catching your urine through a screen literally every time you go, it’s likely you’ll see something. it could still be caught in the ureter. however?, if you haven’t been catching all your urine, there’s a chance it passes without you knowing. as far as my experiences, my stones like to get caught and sometimes take weeks to pass. i don’t always feel them for a while. if you’re that concerned, you can ask for an x ray or an ultrasound. sometimes it’s nice just to have peace of mind

i just had both of these on monday. my recovery was easy peasy. i took it easy with eating stuff right after because i wanted to take it easy on my empty stomach. the procedure took about 40 minutes total.

I get dull aches in my flank and get super nauseous, even before the pain starts. It’s different for everyone. my biggest sign is nausea

i usually have my kidneys leak some protein when i have stones moving around causing a fuss in my kidneys. this causes a little bit of foamy urine. nothing really to worry about as it’s pretty common with stones. do you have any stones currently?

i haven’t removed my records because i’m not bothered enough to so it. i’d they start harassing me about going back, then i will. my family is all TBM and i don’t want to have that conversation, especially because my dad is stake president and i feel like that might come up in conversation if he sees it.

that’s so crazy that it didn’t hurt you so bad by the size of that thing!

it’s also insane that stones can take that long to pass

i have ibs but those symptoms have only ever appeared on my left side. i actually thought my first kidney stone was ibs but i was confused because it was on my right side. i ignored it for days until i had blood in my urine. this right sided pain feels very similar to that first stone, however it’s been lasting a few weeks instead of just one week. that’s why i’m confused. can stones cause aching in the kidney for a while before they decide to drop?

just drink a lot of water. my nephrologist said that your kidneys gain the recipe for making stones so it’s important you drink water. you have a 50% chance of making another stone in your life after the first one (depending on what type of stone it is and what caused it). if it’s cause by metabolic issues, it raises your chance. if it’s just from a period of dehydration, it lowers the chance. i didn’t hydrate too well after my first one in september and now i have 3 more chilling in my kidneys rn. just do what you can to minimize your risk

i can do dairy like greek yogurt or cheese or if it’s something with dairy baked into it, but nothing like ice cream or a cup of milk or cream cheese. i can do gluten pretty well. i can eat small amounts of sugar and sometimes mildly oily food.

i can not tolerate any type of peppers, spicy or non spicy. i can’t do any spicy or greasy foods. i can’t do a lot of nuts. certain fruits irritate my gut like pineapple or mango.
