As some of you may know I was in the hospital last week with kidney stones. They were horrible. I had to stay for 5 days. I am home now and had to go back to the pcp today as the same pain and symptoms started up again yesterday. They tested my urine again today and it still had blood in it. They're pretty sure that it is still kidney stones and are sending me to a urologist. I absolutely panick when I had to see a doctor let alone a specialist. My grandmother had to have half of her kidney removed because of cancer years ago and is 82 and doing great and my mother was diagnosed with stomach cancer a year ago so naturally I'm terrified I have cancer. They have not even mentioned cancer but I come home and because I'm so scared get on the internet and some people with my symptoms do end up with cancer. My husband is mad at me and tells me to quit reading into things when they clearly seen the stones I've already passed but I sure would appreciate everyone's prayers. I'm scared to death. I can't even think straight but I knew I could count on you guys for support. It may not be anything more than stones, they sent me home with pain pills and that's it. I just thought I would ask for your help.

Thank you all in advance,

Love you all,

Hugs.... I will keep my fingers and toes and eyes and everything else that I can cross, that all is well. Keep your chin up.....you are a trooper.

My prayers are with you. If you are having lots of pain that is almost certainly stones and not CA. Aren't kidney stones the pits?

My thoughts and prayers are with you. I know what that paralyzing pain feels like; as I've had to pass a stone once.

You must be like me; doing ALL the research and dwelling on the worst case scenarios. Please, don't do that to yourself. I'm learning that it does you no good. The internet is a wealth of information, but I've learned that it scares me to death.

Best of luck; keep us posted.

Thank you all so much. Your right, I am reading only the worst and just figuring I have it. I know you all think I'm crazy but really I'm not. I just have a real phobia with doctors. I have passed 4 stones and they have been sooooo painful. They did finally give me something for pain, they didn't the day they released me so that is helping alot. Thanks for all your replies, you all are my family and I knew you would be supportive. Hope I can be of help to you all some day.

Love you all,

I'm sure you're in the thoughts and prayers of everyone here. Think good thoughts and wait and see what they have to say, don't let yourself dwell on what might be.

"Father, I pray for my friend, I pray against cancer in the name of Jesus. I pray that you would heal her and that you would supernaturally intervene on her behalf. I pray that no weapon formed against her would prosper and that anything in her body that is trying to come against her, sickness, disease, would be cast out in the name of Jesus. I thank you Father for your will being done, In Jesus name, Amen."

Thank you so much Babyback. I really appreciate it more than you will ever know. I have been so nervous and upset. I don't know why I let these thought's cloud my judgement. The doctor has never even mentioned the word cancer and why I always think this is beyond me. I guess my mother coming down with it last year now I think every time I get a cold it's cancer.

Thank you again, I am a firm believer in "If God can bring you to it he can bring you through it"

You know what they say, "If you are going through hell, don't stop!!! HE will bring you through it and you will be refined in the process. Just draw near to Him and He will give you that peace that passes all understanding.

You will remain in my prayers! Audree

Not religious, but you still have my thoughts and blessings.............!

Kidney stones are horrible... I know how you feel - I have had a total of 18 of them since my daughter was born in 1989. I really feel for you... The urologist will be able to find out if there are anymore left in youir kidneys and help you prevent further attacks.

I bled after each attack too, my doctor said it was because the edges of the stones are sharp and can cause some bleeding as they make their way out - if they are small enough to do so alone.

I will keep you in my prayers!!
