Has anyone else got this? Do you know how you got it or what caused it. I have had stents twice (which were sooo uncomfortabe) with no sucess. No I have been sent to the head of Urology at Cedars Of Sinai. He says the reason the stents didn't work is because the problem is on the outside of the uereter, not the inside. He wants to do surgery to reroute something (a vessel I think?) that he says will fix it.

If anyone has any insight or experience please reply.Thanks! Lindee
