Oops, on closer reading, I had the lithotripsy treatment to zap the stones, not laser.

Went in at 6am and was home by 10am. Sedation is minor, not total, and I have little sensation so recovery was minimal. Good luck either way!

I had an ultra sound done on my kidney's and they found stones. Tomorrow I'm getting an x-Ray to determine if the stones are clsifid (sp) or not. A week from tomorrow I will see my urologist with x-Ray in hand and I just might be walking out of his office with an RX to take a pill to dissolve the stone. I am ridiculously upset about the prospect of having the stone zapped, souly because i would need to be at an out patient center at 6:00am - for me, and a lot of us, this is extremely difficult.
