You want Naproxen or Diclofenac for the inflammation if you can get that otc in the US, try your GP if not.

When I had Gallstones, back when it was my old school, good GPs, they told me the NHS only ever recommend pethidine (Demerol in the US I think) for gallstones and kidney stones, and it was an older opiate not really used for anything else anymore as it was only useful for these two things.
Morphine is far superior for everything else.
Otherwise, drink lots, and bear the pain. You may have to weigh up whether it's going to actually hurt more, and be more psychologically taxing to try and organise pain relief, than it is to stay put with home comforts in familiar surroundings and wait a number of hours.
This too, will pass. Literally.
Sympathies, it took me three months, and lots of attacks to get them to take my gallstones seriously. It was anxiety, apparently.
 
Mix this with apple cider vinegar in water or apple juice. Drink 2-3 times a day for a few days and as much water as you can. Should be gone within a week or two using this method.

If you feel it necessary visit a doctor and inform them of your problem, there are meds they can prescribe to open your ureter more and it makes it less painful. Only as a last resort though.

Hey yeast infection, women get kidney stones too. You probably just jinxed yourself while the rest of us are here are being supportive and holding OP's hand at the urinal.
I've had kidney stones. Not too bad when your urethra is only 1/6th the length.
 
I got hella paranoid about covid and looked at supplements to improve my health and got kidney stones. I was taking alot of vitamin D at the time, and was dehydrated. Don't take excessive amounts of vitamin D but I didn't get sick from covid atleast while I took it ngl tho I just got kidney stones from having too much and being dehydrated. They suck fr tho that first pain I felt made me so scared.

Hence me knowing exactly how to get rid of them (see above). It's actually p easy to break down but they are also easy to avoid just eat acidic foods like lemon and apple cider vinegar and I'd feel pretty safe from them. Also drink water
 
At least we don't go psycho for a 1/4 of our lives until we reach 50.
If only the menopause actually came at 50.

As for the kidney stone, solidarity. Pound water and basically try to pressure wash the fucker out. Is it washed down into your bladder yet? The pain of it going through the urethra isn't as bas as it being stuck in the ureter.

If you've got any co codamol that helps, too. Remember if you start a temperature to see a doctor urgently.
