Battling another kidney stone as of Saturday!....Had not gotten one since last October...that's why I'm still awake right now....drinking tons of water and trying to make this thing move....Still peeing a bunch of blood so it's still making it's way thru the ureter on the left side....when it does try to move it hurts like hell!......funny thing is I just saw my urologist and he ordered a KUB x-ray and MRI just to see if any rocks are in there right now....I haven't done the MRI or KUB yet but I guess this kidney stone just answered the question....
Anyways, I'm gonna try to get some sleep now but I'm hesitating cause that's when my stones seem to move and create havoc......guess I got no choice! Good night....:helpme:

Had the pleasure twice years ago, Cam. Passed one, and when the Dr. showed it to me I said: "That's it???? ---No way--that thing has to be as big as a bag of concrete." Hang in there---hope you get relief soon.

haha... I thought you liked that sort of thing... but seriously, good luck with the grass bur


Well.....I just got violated by my doc this mornin'!......as I waited patiently in the doctor's room I got nervous and started playing with them black ear probe covers....had two of em' up my nostrils when the cute young nurse walked in!.....I told her it prevented me from sneezin' and something I had discovered about 10 years ago.....I don't think she believed me....Anyway, she took my vitals and walked out....I think my blood pressure went up just a tad when I noticed they only had XXL gloves on the wall!.....So when my lady doc walked in I immediately asked her if those gloves were for her hubby (who is also a doctor there)......Of course, she didn't answer me.....As she was looking at my records I kept tryin' to size up her middle finger in anticipation of what was to come!....When she first asked me what was hurting, I said I had a headache..but then I fessed up and told her I had a pain "down there".......So, I had to drop my drawers. She complimented me on my Sponge Bob boxers......and she asked me to lay down on my right side facing the wall and to bend my left leg up.......then the cute nurse walked in to witness....guess that's standard procedure ever since Greendawg created a ruckus with his doctor about 20 years ago when he accused the doctor of pulling one of his grey ass hairs out! Greendawg sued....but lost the case nevertheless.....I asked the doc if the nurse was there just to film the procedure for some low budget porn video production....again, doc didn't answer....anyway, her middle digit went in bout nails length and I thought to myself, "Hey, this isn't so bad"....
That's about when the rest of her digit went in and about the time I chipped a tooth!......As she rotated to probe, I started yodeling kinda like this:

Anyway, I checked out OK for the most part..got one small internal rhoid about 8 inches in...that's right! 8 inches!....her finger was that long!...least it felt that way!.....Got some sort of steroid med to get rid of it.....which is totally confusing to me....Wouldn't a steroid on your hemorrhoid make it bigger in your asteroid?.....Medicine these days I tell ya..........So, left the office and went over to my wife's workplace to switch cars but I forgot to go to the bathroom and remove the rest of the KY off me......so every slippery step I took made me lose my balance.....bout dislocated my hip!!..
Bottom line folks: Don't ignore symptoms and see your doc!.......And I must admit, I got a little bit of a crush on my doctor now!......:blush:

The stent removal is an experience everyone should enjoy at least once! I had the lithotripsy on the last one, that's the way to go!

I've had lithotripsy twice...back in '92 and '09....it was way different in '92.....they'd strip you naked and dunk you in a large tub of water and a nurse in a bikini would jump in with you!......course, then you'd get put to sleep so who knows what happened after that!!!!.......
