Tuesdays apparently hate me.  I cut my finger on a tuesday, and this tuesday…

Woke up in the morning and was in a terrible amount of pain.  Figure I just slept funny (even though it wasn’t a standard back pain).  I had the same type of pain on Monday, but it eventually went away.  So I get on the bus to goto the expo, thinking it would go away and I’d be fine.  Well… WRONG!  It got considerably worse, so I called up my friend amy and asked her to take me to the hospital post haste (no i didn’t actually say post haste, but I’m sure she could tell by me even asking that I really needed to be taken to the hospital quickly).  She picked me up outside of randolph WOW it hurt.  After triage they had me change into a gown and put an IV in my arm.  A few tests later, a CT scan, and a few more hours and they figured I had a kidney stone.  SUPER!

I know kidney stones suck cause my Dad had one a few years ago while we were in Nebraska.  It’s the worse pain a man can go through.   Today I went to a urologist… they did some x-rays and apparently I don’t have just one kidney stone, but 3.  The Largest of which is 4mm.  (ouch).

So yeah, excruciating pain.  That’s what I’m in for.  I actually haven’t taken pain killers since I was at the hospital.  I still feel pain every once in a while (which intensifies if I breath deep) but it hasn’t been as unbearable as yesterday. (knock on wood?)

More updates later
