I haven't had kidney stones so far.

My pain medication is Transtec (buprenorfine patches), Temgesic (sublingual buprenorfine), and Neurontin.

One kidney stone passed finally! That sucker was huge and had lots of sharp jagged edges. The last 3 days have been torture and it's obvious why. I was able to catch it and am hoping the doctors will be able to send it in for testing and see what kind it is and if there's anything I can do to prevent more. Still have at least 2 more to pass...but maybe those will be easier...hopefully. last time I had a stone and caught it, it was like the size of a pencil tip and smooth...this one was very different and much much bigger.

Oh man... glad at least one passed. But still more to go? That sucks.

At least 2 more that they saw on the ultrasound. Hoping those are smaller and less painful to pass. The doctors office is sending in the one I passed Sunday so hopefully we can find out what kind it was and if there's anything I can do to avoid this in the future.

Man that is horrible, but at least they are sending it in!

Keep us posted.
