Passing 5mm stone - Kidney Disorders Message Board

winterwolfes · 05-20-2005, 05:53 AM

So my primary doctor called me yesterday to tell me that the IVP report said there is no stone. Is it possible to pass a 5 mm stone and never know it? I have been watching like a hawk for this thing everytime I go to the bathroom and I have never seen anything. I have an appointment with a urologist on monday that I will keep anyway just to hear what he has to say. From what everyone I know has been telling me, the passing of a 5mm stone seemed like there was no way I could have missed it.

i passed a 5 mm stone (they first said it was 7mm on the ct scan, but after actually seeing the real thing, it was only 5mm) but believe me if it came out and you looking you would have seen it, you can't miss it. mine looked just like and apple seed just a little smaller. but it the doc says it's possible then i guess it's possible. i would keep the appt. with the urologist too.
