im 27 now. been living in constant pain for about 3 years now. ive read other stories and agree with them. your in pain, er’s should help. but in my situation, they tell me ive been there too much and give me the crappy stuff that doesnt help. all because ive been there too much. my uro basically ignores that im in pain. so what am i supposed to do now. ive had 5 litho’s in less than 3 years. had stents placed in both kidneys. horrible horrible pain. got hospitalized cuz of the pain. got hooked up to a pain pump full of diluated. the really good stuff. i want a new uro that will help me cope with the pain. i live in wisconsin, if anyone knows a good uro to go too please let me know.
