Urinary Tract Stones
"Experienced sudden severe pain in left abdomen &amp; back a week ago. An ultrasound at the Gastroenterologist (yeah, I went to one..) singled out the culprit as a 5mm stone in left ureter close to VUJ.  I consulted a urologist a day after &amp; he prescribed Tamsulosin (Flomax) 0.4mg each day in the night after meal. I used it for three days and got a CT KUB done since my pain wan&#039;t coming down much. - The CT KUB showed the stone intact at the same position (VUJ), The doctor suggested Laser Lithotripsy after two days. My pain stopped from that night &amp; to check if stone got into bladder I went to a nearby diagnostic center &amp; got another ultrasound scan done, the 5mm stone is gone!"
