percocet and kidney stones

I found the percocet to be 100% more effective than the dilaudid for pain management of kidney stones. even though the dilaudid is stronger...the percocet did much more for my pain...so it might be worth switching to that just on that merit alone :-). do they have you on a preventative antibiotic? when is your next follow-up? feel free to msg me if you ever have a question!

I had kidney stones bad and had to be hospitalized a lot and put on iv pain med but when it was manageable I was on. 1-2 Percocet 5's every 4-6 hrs through out my pregnancys. I only get bad stones while pregnant but my babies were all healthy, well the ones I took the medicine with. If you are in pain take your medicine bonus it help with pregnancy pains...

ve had kidney stones, and surgery to put stints in. And this pain from cellulitis is even more painful than kidney stones. Apparently I'm supposed to lay in bed a lot, and keep my foot elevated. But I can't just lay in bed for several weeks. And it seems odd, but it is more painful to be laying down than to sit in a chair. Also, laying down makes it so sitting back up, and standing, are so painful that I have to spend half an hour gradually going from laying down to standing.

This past friday at 1:20am I was rushed to the ER from sudden back pain that was unbearable I was so scared for my baby.. Came to the conclusion it's kidney stones and I became more terrified because there's not many pain killers they could give me other than tylenol and morphine, so about the last one I asked if it was ok for my baby, first they said not sure!!

How many here have dealt with kidney stones during pregnancy? I am 18 wks 5 days and have a stone that needs to pass. Hurts excessively. I had a stone with my last pregnancy at 34 wks. That time required surgery to remove. If this is not gone by Monday I may be headed that way again.

Percocet/dilaudid. Long story stort, I was diagnosed with kidney stones septemper 18th and found out I was pregnant a week later. The baby was planned but the stones were not, haha. Anyway, after finding out I was pregnant I attempted to stop using the Percocets, but the kidney stone pain was too severe to be controlled by Tylenol Alone and I resorted back to taking Percocet for pain maganement.

I am 38 weeks pregnant and my Ob prescribed me percocet for kidney stones. I passed the stone today so I wont be needing the pain killers anymore. But i don't want my baby to have this in his system when he's born. Should it be all cleaned out by the time he arrives?

I have been dealing with kidney stones since i was 14 weeks and am now 33 weeks but and have been in and out of the hospital..my doctor hasnt mentioned going early but i kinda wish i would so i dont have to be in pain anymore.

The doctor diagnosed me with a UTI last week. I'm on my last day of antibiotics, and they didn't clear up my symptoms. I have a history of kidney stones, and I'm afraid that's what is going on again. Anybody have any experiences with kidney stones during pregnancy? What did you do for them?

Why isn't a urologist treating you? I have stones as well and there is NO WAY a doc would prescribe that to me!! UNLESS...I sought out a pain specialist, in which case the urologist would say.....I don't know what's wrong here so go have a pain specialist fill ur script. Its VERY common! Hunny you've got to get help. There's lithotripsy, diets, and other options IF..... kidney stones are the real issue here.

Hi, I have been diagnosed with several unobstructive kidney stones on my left side. I have no fever...I went to the er and a ct scan showed a 3 cm cyst on my left ovary in addition to revealing the stones (right kidney). I am bloated and aching, and my back and entire abdomen hurts. It's been over a week and half...I am on an antibiotic as well as percocet as it is the only drug that takes the edge off. My question is, how much longer will it take for the stones to pass?

I get kidney stones each time I get pregnant. Mine are caused by the xtra calcium that I consume while taking prenatals. I normally stop getting them about 6 months after giving birth. It's annoying and super painful but I want to give my babies the nutrients they need so I continue to take them.

Update: Week 27 of 48. UND, sides well-comtroled. Previously seen questionable indeterminate liver lesion on MRI now determined to be NOT HCC due to stability over time and imaging features. Had surprise wake-up callyesterday 5 am...Left renal colic. Anybody aware of an association between treatment and kidney stones? I've had renal colic before, but this is by far the most painful bout. Hepatologist gave green light for Vicodin or Percocet, which are helping.

I am 21 weeks pregnant and went to the hospital a few days ago in severe pain. Ultrasound revealed that I had water around my kidney and a blockage, which was caused by a kidney stone. I was given an epidural and a stent was inserted, which alleviated my immediate pain. I am now home, and the stent is very uncomfortable; I cannot do any activities because of the pinching and aching it is causing me. I was not given any pain medication or was even told what to expect.

Could my obgyn give me some hydrocodone for pain I have kidney problems

I am a 31 year old non smoker, non drinker who has multiple GI problems. I am a "bubble gum machine" full of kidney stones, the largest measuring 8mm on the left, and 6.5 mm on the right. I had Gall sludge while I was pregnant and told to just wait until the pregnancy was over, it would probably disappear. Incidentally, a 2 mm liver lesion was seen on a CT scan 2 years ago, which was never even mentioned. The saga of pain continues.

Last year I also started having problems with multiple kidney stones. After my first emergency surgery for stones in my left kidney everything went down-hill. I have urethral stenosis, stricture disease and large amounts of scar tissue in my left ureter. The doctor placed a stent that my body rejected and they had to removed it within 4 days. My stones are made up of uric acid however uric acid levels in my blood are normal but in my urine they are sky high.

Percacet and vicoden are safe. I also have kidney stones. I'm 25 wks and have had them since ten weeks. Its so painful. Sometimes mine take weeks to pass... make sure u drink a ton of water. Hope u feel better!! Also a heating pad helps. Every time I have an attack I end up in l & d cuz it causes me to cramp.

I have mutiple kidney stones and gullstones. I would say go in because if u do have one lodge somewere it could cause an effection and poetentially hurt u and the baby if it doesn't get fixed. I had an episode twice were I thought it was my kidney stones and it was my gullstones same type of pain which I never new until now. Its better to be safe then sorry why be more uncomfortable then u already are. Good luck and keep updating.

I have neuropothy which is under control with minimal amounts of Norco and methadone ( not a user just no insurance and its cheap). I am having kidney stones and the doctor put me on Percocet and told me to stop the Norco..Is Percocet stronger than Norco? The stones are killing me.

Soooo I have never been pregant before. I have kidney stones. This is the 5th time. Uggh lol I have percocet prior to pregnancy for the same thing. Can I.maybe cut one in half? I am 10 weeks pregnant today. I've heard because im a plus size female its more ok.... HELP? FIRST ITS MIGRAINS NOW KIDNESY....

No stones were shown and all results are "fine". can anyone tell me what I should be looking for??? The pain never goes away, just the intensity increases or decreases. Please help I am feeling hopeless.

i recently had a ultra sound scan which showed my kidney was normal however although it looks normal my bloodwork isn,t,so i am seeing a nephrologist on monday if i,m honest i,m praying that my only kidney is packing up because i really can,t take anymore,my husband of 25yrs left me because he couldn,t take anymore of my infections and frequent hospital stays, Many times i have had symptoms like yours and each time i have been told many many times it wasen,t my kidney, i,m afraid that is a load

I was prescribed percocet for kidney stones in my last pregnancy. My doc said it's bad for you to be in pain because it stresses the baby out. If your ob have it to you and said to take it, just take it when it hurts. You don't want you or baby to become addicted. Good luck and I hope you feel better!

I've never had them but I've heard kidney stones are terrible and people often say it's worse than labor. But you have such a problem with them, you may want to see a real specialist; someone that's considered an expert in the field. Not sure where you are or where your physician is in relation to where you live, but I know for me I wouldn't go to my local, suburban doc; I'd be in Boston at one of the major hospitals.

Almost this whole pregnancy I've has kidney stones and they put Me through so much pain but there's nothing doctors can do since I'm pregnant I'm currently 33 weeks and it's starting to hurt everyday I went to my doctor the other day with so much blood in my urine and now I go to a kidney ultrasound the 30th but lately I've been having to take a pain pill everyday cause it always starts to hurt.. And Tylenol doesn't help at all..
