Thank you all for the feedback. All the information is what I have researched on the internet. My doctor said that I could decide which procedure to have and would need a stent. I was leaning toward the lithotripsy as the ureteroscopy seemed to have a longer recover period and required a stent for a longer period of time. I will be meeting with him again to discuss more details. I was so concerned about the stent because my dad had one and was never able to remove it.
