Having Pain In Lower Quadrant After ESWL. No Strength In Legs And Feeling Palpitation Is Due To Lithotripsy Procedure?
I had ESWL done on the 13th of this month, however I am still having some pain in my R lower quad. I have been to my dr in which they requested an IVP, which is scheduled to occur at 8am today. However, after waking up from a small nap, I have no strength in my legs. I barely can stand up on them. Palpitation is felt to some degree, but not normal. Is this be connected to the lithotripsy procedure?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can say that the lithotripsy and the symptoms you described hare are not related with each other your symptoms are more suggestive of colicky type of pain and that some time remain there even after the procedure you can try some antispasmodic drug for symptomatic relief but before taking it have a word with your doctor, take care and have nice day.
