So there I am this morning, lying in bed. My side hurt from yesterday like someone had ball tapped me. (Yea I read that thread) But as I get up this morning a HORRIBLE sensation runs from my kidney to my Netherlanders! I fall to the floor, writhing in pain. I can't lay on my stomach, I can't lay on my left side, or my right. It's feels ok to pace back and forth, but only for a little bit.
God don't let this be my appendix....
After 5-10 minutes of pacing the upstairs, I collapse. The pain is so excruciating I can't stand. My knees are weak, my hands are shaking, I feel sick to my stomach. The pain gets so bad I'm dry heaving. I've not ate or drank anything. Eventually, I have my oldest daughter call my wife and my mother. I'm writhing on the floor. No positions are helping. The heating pad doesn't help. I'm praying. The pain is so bad I can't take it anymore.
My father shows up.
My wife shows up.
I'm in so much pain now I can't breathe normally. I have the shakes. Hot cold hot cold hot cold. I'm in my fathers car and we're FLYING to Hedricks County Hospital....
We get there, and I can no longer stand. They put me in a wheelchair. I'm still praying to God to make it stop. 30 minutes of thrashing in the wheelchair and then the cold floor they FINALLY come get me. They do the vitals then give me a room. 10 minutes later I have an IV then 2 different pain meds and I'm out.
I think they gave me a CAT scan and a very blood tests.
Yup. It's a 4mm Kidney Stone. This will make my 3rd.
They sent me home with some Flowmax and some Oxycodone.
Just thought I'd let you all know....
I HATE KIDNEY STONES!
I'm gonna go pass out now. Nite.
