Danny, glad to hear you are back home.  I think the stones are a symptom of a 
person with SCI.  The size of your stone is remarkable and the fact that you 
did not have symptoms earlier is amazing.  Watch your calcium intake.  Hang 
tough as you have been.  Best wishes... Dan T. Go Bears!

after having a golf ball sized bladder stone taken out, Now about 9 years post 
it was my 1st stone.-- Thanks for all the well wishes and prayers. My Doc was 
going to make an incission to get it out but decided to go with laser method. 
The Doc said he had to try and flush out the pieces because my ( urethra's ) 
were obliverated --- he could not get a wire thru there, and that was how he 
was gonna remove the pieces. Has anyone  had this happen to them ??   { I have 
had a supra-pubic catheter about 6 years now and not sure if that is a common 
occurance with having a supra-pubic.}  {  Also to MARK or others who may have 
had this same procedure done in recent past.......did you keep having pain and 
some bleeding afterward ?  }  My bleeding has pretty much stopped now except a 
bit at times and mostly during the night., but i'm still having lots of pains 
like from bladder or lower gut area.....hope that
 gets better, I have been taking a lot of vicadins.  (( Dan H.  c-6 ))
