moderate pain - Kidney Disorders Message Board

this morning i again woke up with pain. it was moderate about 8/10 versus the initial 10/10. I was sore last night and took a tylenol. This morning I took half of my pain pill. i am not feeling the pain in my back right now. I felt a slight burn when I urinated.
Could someone reassure me that it is typical for the pain to come back after 3days?
and does anyone find pain is worst in the AM? maybe because the stone was trying to pass and no water to help flush it out?
I do not want to ignore this pain if it will cause me damage. but I want to try to endure it if this is typical of a kidney stone.
thanks to all you experienced kidney stoners in advance. was your first one scary?

hi there. i am urinating frequently. no fever.
Later in the day the pain was mild..I took a tylenol which helped.
I am hoping it does not hurt tomorrow morning.
I realize that I just have one small stone..and I have done research online etc...but I still just do not know what to expect!!!! and that first day at the ER..that is something I never want to experience again.
the pain is mild right now in my back. I have been feeling something a little more towards the front of my body as well. I look forward to my Urologist appointment next week (thursday). I am on vacation next week!! I am not going out of town or anything. ..just taking some time off. I'm not going to let this darn snapping turtle inside me ruin it!
thanks for the knowledge.
