Hi my little Mickey had this surgery 2 times with in 6 months ( I dont think they got all the stones the first time) they had flushed him 3 times until I said enough is enough just do the surgery.his were also lodge in the urethra the first surgery was terrible took him weeks to bounce back, a different Dr did the secong surgery and he was good the next day and the cut looked so much better then the first time.
any ways make sure they send the stones to the lab to make sure what kind they are so he can be put on the right foods. different stones diggerent foods. Mickeys on U/D plus he only drinks bottled water now. and he seems to be doing great now.
food luck with your little one, keeping him in my prayers. keep us updated.
