It started bothering me Xmas eve. By thus day the 27 I had my son drive me to the ER. Had appointment with urologist on the 28 th and surgery that night. They said I could wait it out, but it could be a couple of weeks. I own a small restaurant, so opted for surgery. The dr came out and told me it was lodged and wouldn't have come out itself. So surgery was a good option. I was back to wrk on Wednesday due to new years tired and sore but could o my work. I hope it passes quickly for you, this is one pain I do not wish upon anyone....
