I am also wondering about the ureter tightning up agin. I started with stones over 2 years ago and had 5 procedures in a year to remove them. Because of the scar tissue, I cannot pass a stone on my own. Well, I continued to have pain but because the ex rays showe'd no stone, they just sent me on my way. I had to go to my regular dr for abdominal pain and he ordered an ultrasound which show all ok with my gall bladder however my left kidney (which is the one all my stones have been in) showed dilation. He advised me to see my urologist and I did. They set me up with a retrograde pylogram to see where blockage coming from. That showed scar tissue so they dilated my ureter and put a stent in. Stents are not fun. I too want to know what happens once the stent is removed. I can't imagine the ureter staying open forever. Has anyone else had this and what were the results.
