Stone

[snowriver]

5 days back, morning i had a strange pain while passing urine, it wasnt pain , but kind of a feeling to pee more , but nothing comes, and dark urine. i went to doctor he did a scan and said there is a 6.9mm stone (he pointed it in lower abdomen , i think in urinary sack ) he said the tone would pass in a week. and gave me medication -Tamsulosin HCl 0.4mg ,and pain killers .

after that day i haven't felt any pain , a mild burning sensation was there yesterday.. but NO serious pain... im wondering now what to do., as i have traveled to another country and visiting a doctor is very expensive here..

its strange that till now im having no pain, and no symptoms of stone going out.. i don't know what to do now.. i have stopped taking pain killers and now taking only tamsulosin..
im drinking around 2 liters water daily, lemon juice etc..

Sorry about your kidney-stone, Brother. I feel your pain, literally! I get them all the time and take Tamsulosin (Flomax).

Hopefully your doctor instructed you to drink PLENTY of water (3L-5L/day) until you pass the stone. Did he? If not, DRINK LOTS OF WATER.

The mild burning sensation comes with the territory, but drinking plenty of fluids will help dilute your urine. I wouldn't worry too much about it, unless it persists after you pass the stone.

Post back and let us know how you make out.
