urinary tract stones
"Diagnosed with 5 mm stone in October.  Dull ache in lower back and pink urine.  Given flomax and started drinking 1.5 gallons of water a day.  In February to ER with extreme pain - could not stand or sit - pain felt like a spasm that started mildly in my lower left abdomen and then grew to the point of extreme (10/10) from my abdomen down to my feet.  CT showed stone had moved just slightly to the outflow of my kidney.  Had procedure to remove it with ureteral stent placement afterwards.   If flomax did anything, I am not aware of it."
