PAIN AFTER STENT REMOVAL
by patty3390, Aug 07, 2009 03:26PM
I had a large kidney stone that I could not pass. My doctor inserted a stent in me until the infection eased up and I could have the stone blasted. About a week after they inserted the stent, the stone was blasted and about 12 days after that I had the stent removed. The time the stent was in was unbearable....extremely uncomfortable and frequent urination. The stent has been out for about 2-1/2 months and I am still having discomfort in the lower groin area. My doctor has ordered all kinds of tests to be sure there was not another stone, which there isn't.
Why am I still having this pain? I think they think I am crazy as they cannot find anything? Could this still be from the stent? I have had a hysterectomy so it is not female related. The pain is similar to cramping.
Please help!
