Can a kidney stone in my left ureter cause pain in right kidney?

I have been having pain in my right kidney that feels just like a kidney stone (I've had several on the right side). It aches constantly and I get intense sharp pains that make me nauseated. It got so bad that I went to the ER 4 days ago where I was told that I have a stone stuck in the left ureter just before the entrance into the bladder but they didn't see anything on the right side. I am pregnant so I could only have an ultrasound done which isn't very accurate in viewing stones. My question is can the stone on my left side be causing all the pain I'm experiencing on the right side? The doctor seemed to think I was crazy.
