Kidney stone? Who knows?

Well I did it. Hauled myself off to gp then Emergency coz I'm 90% sure i have a kidney stone.

Praise God I got seen relatively quickly but xray didn't show stone. I do have an infection though. Got bounced up to gynae who are pretty sure colicky pain isn't from the Mother of All Fibroids sitting there (which I can feel oh so much better since losing 20kgs - it's like a bloomin bowling ball in my belly).

So, they sent me home with buscopan, augmentin and best wishes. Waaaa I'm still pretty sure it's a kidney stone!

Keep your fluids up high, make that critter swim for its life.
Hey while I have your attention the Columbus Ohiomosque had a Open Mosque over the weekend , had a very nice turnout , the Iman said we may do this more often. Had a lot of Somali relocating there, not as big community as Minneapolis Minn. , that's largest group there.

I'm even giving @Matt_Z a run for his money in the drinking water stakes.

Lovely to hear about the mosque open day! Definitely good for meeting neighbours and building bridges!

What are you going to do about the fibroid?

They've given me an outpatients appointment in the new year. Not sure really coz it's not doing much. I'm not getting any problematic fibroid symptoms like excessive bleeding and clotting, so, dunno if there is much point doing anything to it.

Yes please stay hydrated. At this point contact your primary care doctor. Bless you. That pain is no joke. Keep us posted.

Thanks [emoji106] yeah I went to my GP before the emergency dept yesterday - it's kinda how it works here. I had stones about ten years ago and it is no joke that is for sure.
Drink down those fluids and get to feeling better soon!?
