wow, i have been in your exact situation. when i was in high school i had lots of problems with kidney stones and ovarian cysts. If the stone is starting to pass, you will experience those pains, off and on, sometimes more constant. its because those stones which are rather large are passing through the ureter, which is tiny. imagine a pebble passing through a strand of hair. if the stones are large enough, your doctor may suggest a surgery, either where they use a scope to remove the stone, or a surgery where they use a laser to break it up from outside. but if your stones have already begun to pass, they may not bother and just let you pass them. sometimes it was hard to distingush the pain from the kidney stone from the extra bad cramps i'd get thanks to the cysts. just drink plenty of water, to help flush it down to your bladder more easily. if ibuprofen-type pain relievers aren't working, ask your doctor for a prescription pain medication, because it can offer a little more ease while the stone is passing. also, to ease the pain of both kidney stones and cysts, relax in a hot bath, or jacuzzi if you have access. the weightlessness of being suspended in the water takes the weight and pressure off the kidneys, and it helps with the pain BIG TIME in my experience. good luck, i hope you get to feeling well.
First, drink all the fluids that you can. With luck, your stones could actually pass with that fluid. If not, you may find yourself all doubled up, and needing an opertation. Don't fight the operation.
