Default Hope this latest surgery gets my DS's kidney stone!!
DS30 is going in tomorrow...the smashing thingie didn't work; it's still 3.5mm (is that right?). So his urologist is going in (up) to laser the sucker and pull the stone and the stent out. Hope that'll be end of story...

going up WILL remove the stone. Your son may be sore, and a bit tender in his bits for a day or two, but all should resolve nicely after that.

Make sure they tell him if its an oxolate stone or a calcium stone. That way he can change his diet.

GL to your son.

Thanks all...posted on Daily Insights about the long day...he got through it, but was bleeding quite a bit for a time...he'll be okay, though. The doc put a string on the stent so he can pull it out on Monday...as to why he still needs it...he still has several 1mm stones in the kidney and the doc hopes this will flush out in a day or two.
I hate having my babies not well...
He'll have to go on a low-protein, low-sodium diet.

How are things today, Debbie? I know what you mean about not liking your babies unwell. Anytime mine were sick or hurt I just wished I could take it away from them and deal with it myself. I've had two (really large) babies........I can handle pain!

He felt okay yesterday...still bleeding, which bothers me, but since the stent is still in, he'll likely keep bleeding until all is out and everything can heal.
Weird that the doc pushed the stone INTO the kidney to laser it...I didn't like that...DS's back is still hurting around the kidney area, but the doc said he would experience that pain.
He's going to visit his DB in D.C. on Tuesday, so I hope he's better by then...

thanks for the prayers and well-wishes...it's greatly appreciated.

DS pulled his stent out yesterday...he said as soon as he had it out, he felt his body relax...now feels absolutely wonderful.
Thanks again for all of the prayers/well wishes.
