I just had my first bout with these things. Started last night, stopped on the way to the emergency room, started up again early this morning. I finally went to the ER. I cannot describe the pain to anyone who has not had it. AWFUL.

Mine is about 2MM, not sure where the stands on the size for them, but I was in agony this morning. I still haven't passed mine yet.++++ on the water!
I have been lucky and mine have been small and usually pass without to much trouble (knock on wood!!!) but I have seen people in agony from them!
Sometimes they pass fast sometimes not so fast, it is the ones that obstruct the ureter that cause the severe pain. There are meds that are suppose to help. A prostate drug called Tamulosin that is supposed to help. My first ones were at 10 years old.
I just had one a few months ago. 6mm. They really do suck. I took the flowmax and it helped.
I did not notice any. I did pee a lot. But I also drank a lot of water.
It will help with the pain because it make all the passages larger for the stones to pass through.
