Why did it hurt so bad to have my ureteral stent removed?


Question:
Everyone and all the literature says it shouldn't hurt at all to have it removed, but it did SO BADLY! Now I have to have another removed tomorrow and I'm scared to death. What do I do to make it hurt less? It's on a string taped to my leg and just having the string in alone hurts so much I've missed a week of work. What do I do?

Answers:
everybody's body is different And yours is responding differently than the text book patient. I can understand your being scared. Pain is not something anyone wants. I recommend you call your medical doctor immediately and ask for pain medication. Explain what is going on I'm sure the doctor will give you something that can help you deal with this better.
