Kidney Stones Part Duex
So About three weeks ago I mentioned I had developed a nasty 10mm kidney stone. Jump to a week ago last Friday the 28th of January to be exact, when I went to the hospital in excruciating pain that I had developed on Friday. (That was exactly one month from my original kidney stone.) I had another cat scan done were they discovered another 8mm kidney stone on the same side. Now kidney stones can't form in four weeks. I asked my urologist if I was a medical marvel and he said no but that I was defiantly a medical anomaly. Well I just want to be boring when it comes to my health is what I've decided. Just good old healthy bones and body and this girl is happy as can be! Anywho, I was very lucky because he preformed another surgery on me that afternoon. No waiting! Yippy Skippy! While he was pulling out the stone it got stuck and he discovered a pocket in my ureter that has been collecting calcium. Mystery solved. Well he believes he got everything out and I am now wearing a stint to try to heal the pocket shut. Gross stuff I know. But the pain was sooooooooooooooooo bad I think I deserve to blog about it! So here's to hoping for no more kidney stones in 2011. And if you kidney stones just want to be done with me that would be wonderful.
