stones usually pass within 12-24 hours so you should be ok.  however judging by the fact that you have not been answering your probably already in the er.  all they can do is give you pain meds for your stones. if they are at 3mm you should barely feel them move at all.  i've had lots of them and have passed them all without any pain meds or er visits.  good luck.

I know 2 people - 1 man 1 woman with kidney stones and it is not nice. You are very strong to know you are passing them and still sitting there with children. I understand that as they pass through you it can cause all types of other things - Extreme high fever, sweats and naseau. I sat with someone going through it. She almost died from the high blood pressure that developed. Please get some help. Hers were small, but so is a urethra -

Oh girl, I am worrying about you.  I hope your at the doctor right now.  I know us addicts have to be very careful, but if you have to take something then do it.  You can't be in this kinda pain. I can hear it in your typing (your hurting me).lol  You know the rules , take the least amount to get you through this.  Please keep posting and let us know how your doing.  Hugs    Mary

I'm not sure what is more uncomfortable here-the passing of your kidney stone, or the fact you started your post with a 'ya all'.....
Yikes!! Do we need a vacation to the Pacific Northwest to salvage our vocabulary?!?

If you pass them, be sure to get them analyzed to see what they are mado of....sometimes it is something in your diet that can be avoided...kidney stones consist of different stuff in different people....check it out if you can

They might be too big to pass.  I had stones too big and were stuck in my kidney.  I had to have a lypotripsy (sp?) and a stent put in so they could all pass.  But while they were stuck in my kidney, they doctor said they were bouncing around in there when the kidney filled with fluid.  That was what my pain was.  You probably should go get the scan and get checked you dont want to mess around.  If one of those stones gets stuck in any of the tubes, you could be in more trouble than you need.
