Kidney stone? Who knows?



Recommended Posts

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!

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.

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.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
