On Friday they (hopefully) blasted the stone to smithereens, but I have the stent in until next Tuesday at the earliest (based on the x-ray results). I know they got parts of it at least, and the idea of getting blasted again doesn't bother me - it's the extra 3 weeks of stent backwash into the kidney that is such a literal and philosophical pain.
The sucker was 14 mm in diameter. That sounded small at first because hey, it's in millimeters, but that's 3/4 of an inch!
