Kidney stone: 10, biopsy: 2 Additionally, the pain of the biopsy was over in minutes (especially my 2nd one which was done by a very experienced NP), the kidney stone lasted hours, and was combined with vomiting. So, on one hand, level 10 pain for hours, or level 2 pain for minutes: it's a no brainer :*) After the biopsy I went out to eat, the stone landed me in the hospital needing morphine to deal with the pain and I couldn't eat for 2 days.
