I have had stones a lot bigger than that. I promise you that you'll be just fine. I have had stones 3.5cm. Which is 35 mm. I had to have mine surgerically removed. Right now I have a 7 mm stone in my kidney sitting there. They don't usually bother with mine. I have had kidney stones for twelve years since I was 7 years of age. I am now nineteen. And trust me the procedure getting it removed will be a lot less painful than passing the stone.
