Why Am I Having Stabbing Pain In My Back With Urge To Vomit?

I am 15 years old and about a week ago today I was in the ER, and the ER doctor took a CT scan and told me I have a kidney stone. He told me the worst pain was over. He perscribed me pain medicine, and sent me home. The sharp stabbing pains went away but the pressure remained. I still have not passed my kidney stone, and it has been a week. But, tonight when I went to go use the bathroom, my back started to get the stabbing shapr pain again. And my pain medicine isnt even helping like it used too. It hurts to the point to where I am throwing up. Does this pain indicate that the stone is about to pass, or is it just moving, or stuck? The ER doctor that saw me the night I went it, told me that the stone is at the end of the tube, and is almost in my bladder, and he said it would pass any day. I cant deal with the pain, please help.

Hello
You need another ct in about three days to see if the stone has indeed passed. Sometimes even after the stone passes there can be residual pain for a few days but if it hasn't passed after three days it will either have to be removed or disintegrated with ultrasound lithotrypsy
