Stoned.

I'm actually cringing after reading that, Wizard.

Isn't there some kind of sound wave thing they can apply to the outside of the kidney and possibly blast it into smaller pieces?

Lithotripsy, methinks.

Kaylen You are right and Im about to make a Dr appt and Im not even sick...I just want you to check me for anykind of penile obstruction or any other kind of exam you can think of...lol

bigdeal....dr.kaylen will fix you right up...lol

Well after a 3 hour attack last night that ended around 3am, finally went to the Dr. Cute one too, :-) Got a little kidney stone cocktail of meds to try and knock this one out.

Sorry to hear of your troubles, royam. That's a discomfort like no other, to say the least. Sure hope the meds knock it out fast & safely. At least you got to see a cute doc, though I can't imagine she's as cute as Dr. Kaylen.

Best wishes,
'hope you've seen the last of the attacks.
