My kidney stone is 4mm x 1cm long.had it ct scanned & it has an inch of ureter to still pass thru. is it going to pass to my bladder? taking flomax (tamsulosin)

Sounds: Like it has a chance.If the pain is too much call your urologist and they can go after it and temporarily stent your ureter. Be sure to drink fluid to flush it if you want to pass it. Do you have enough pain meds at home?

Here are some...: If the degree of hydronephrosis - kidney dilation - is acceptable, you may wait and see with Flomax (tamsulosin) since this stone has already worked its way down thus far although the very end of ureter is the most difficult point to pass through. However, generally speaking, a stone suck a the same spot for more than 2-3 weeks will become less likely to pass; then intervention to remove it is reasonable.
