ANY advise for coping with stones
by: JPB on Tue, May 15 2007

I was diagnosed with medullary sponge kidney in 2001. All they have done for me is pain meds and actually blasted one stone that was stuck for four days in my urethra. Any other time I am just given pain meds and x rays and an iv. I am unable to maintain a job due to being out for pain at least sometimes one day a week. Sometimes its longer. Any help would be greatly appreciated- any advise of how to cope with this situation.
