You need Percocet at the very least. The night before one of my surgeries i was taking 3 percocets at a time just to be able dull the pain somewhat. Just keep drinking the water. If the back pain is going away that means the stone is moving down your ureter closer to your bladder, so that’s a good thing. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/kidney-stones/202810)._
