Stones are not coming through stent
by chandrakant81, Jan 23, 2008 10:26PM
Hi,
I am Chandrakant,
this is my first experience with kidney stones. In my right kidney, small stones (around 3-4mm size) are not coming out through stent and also one of the stone(one stone around 10 mm, and 2 stones around 5mm and less than that) is not dissolving through ESWL since 1.5 months,Dr have attempted 5 times to dissolve the stone through ESWL but thay did't do so.Dr suspecting that stone is too hard + impacted and might required PCNL to remove it out.
I am not having any noticeable pain in the kidney even after placing stent inside.
Please tell me urgently anything which I need to do for removing stones or any suggestions.
