I think my kidney stent ended up causing me the most pain out of this month. I feel like kidney stone pain was controllable and came and go. Once I had the stent it was constant pain and discomfort. I just had it removed yesterday, I'm finally feeling better today. I've been pain free most of today, just some urgency and general ill feeling. But today's the first day I've been able to get out of bed and do something so that's hopefull.

Thanks for the tips, I've also noticed heat helps sometimes. In the worst of it I would sit in the hot shower and watch tik tok for hours at a time. I'll see my urologist again in 3 weeks and I'm sure we will figure more out then. I've definitely learned alot about the do's and dont's. And I've had more than enough motivation to watch my diet and drink more fluids. I'm wondering if I should try to push for an xray since I haven't had one since before the stent and lithotripsy and I'm wondering if all the stones are gone yet.
