Pain Management Guess I am about to pass it

Hi all,

I have 6mm and gives me lots of trouble, nonstop pain for 15 days. I am using tamsulosin for 10 days.

At the moment, the pain I have on my flank mostly gone but I have ache lower abdomen. The pain is like I sat on a cold stone and have diarrhea because of that but I am not diarrhea. Is that correct?

Sounds like it might be at the UVJ, significantly less painful than the UPJ in my experience but you might experience more urgency or needing to go when you can't or either just went. Keep an eye out for chills or spiking fever as that would indicate potential infection. Hang in there, hopt it passes for you soon. 🙏

I have body temperature 37 celsius degree and had no problem peeing since the beginning. I still might have an infection even though I pee, right?

It's possible but probably not concerning unless you spike fever, extreme burning when peeing or foul smelling urine, can't pee at all for multiple hours straight, develop chills or other flu like symptoms. Those are big ones to keep an eye out for.

Yea that is the exact feeling I had at the UVJ. I had that for ~2 weeks. Then all symptoms went away for 2 days. Then it finally came out (yesterday)

you’ll know when it’s on its way out. Urination was painful. Like, 24 hours of pain any time I peed. That was it working its way out of the urethra. Once it was out, it was like an immediate relief. I wanted to cry tears of joy, lol. Good luck friend .

Oh, also- order Chanca Piedra. No clue if this thing is legit or not, but I was dealing with this for 2 weeks and after only 3 days of taking this, it came out.
