I actually don’t know much about it from a medical standpoint. But just from a pure Bayesian reasoning it seems overwhelmingly likely to me that it was the precipitating cause, since I never had it before that. I do think most doctors are very weak at identifying or even understanding patterns that are very unusual and which they haven’t seen before or read about. They generally don’t rely on first principles thinking but reason through pattern matching and referencing their training and experience.

- sgtnoodle 4y agoThe one stone I passed took about a month and a half, and I suspect it dissolved because I never saw it. It turns out I have an anatomical variation on that kidney where I have two ureters. The double ureter meant that my kidney had a redundant path to my bladder, and so there was less pressure on the stone to migrate. It hurt really bad when it first developed because I was tensing up from worry, but once it was diagnosed I was able to mostly manage the pain just by relaxing.
