So back in October I had two kidney stones. I got the one on the left side removed in a procedure called "Shockwave Lithotripsy," but they left the right one alone because it hadn't moved from my kidney and wasn't causing any issues. The thing is that since that procedure I occasionally will feel pain in my left side, where my kidney is, that feels like a dulled down kidney stone, but then the pain goes away after a few minutes. I probably feel this at least once a day and it's mainly an annoyance. But my question is if anyone who has had kidney stones or shockwave lithotripsy done before experienced this?
