In the hospital

I've got 2 good sized kidney stones. I've been shot, stabbed, had broken bones and nothing has hurt like this. They don't want to do surgery yet. They wanna see if they can dilate my kidney tubes enough to get the stones out . I'm exhausted. I don't like the way the pain meds make me feel. I tried to muscle it out but they were getting worried because my BP was really getting too high without them.

This sucks.

I'll try to check in when I can.

Really sorry to hear that BullDog, being in the hospital stinks. Hope they are able to help the stones pass as quickly as possible and help manage the pain. Glad you are in good hands.

Hang in there Dog. Try to rest. I know the pain is at times unbearable but you'll get through it. Say a prayer and stay strong.

I hope they figure this out soon for you. I've heard that kidney stones can hurt like hell. Get better soon!

They do. The worst pain I've ever been in. Thanks, I'll do my best. I'm gonna try to get some sleep now. They just gave me a pain killer and it makes me sick to my stomach. I'll try to check back this afternoon.

i finally got some sleep and I'm feeling a lot better. They haven't passed yet, but right now i'm not in any pain so I'm thankful for that.

i'm so grateful for the kind words from everyone. It really helps in keeping my spirits up.

Yikes! Feel better.
When my Dad had them he said the pain was worse than quadruple bypass surgery.
Hope they pass soon!
