A member asked:
At the er so far i been told i have a bladder infecton do u think its best if they remove my stent now since its causing infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Communication: You need to discuss this with the urologist who placed the stent. They are in the best position to determine whether the benefits of keeping it outweigh the risks. You are entitled to know the details and face to face interaction is best. Good luck.
