Kidney Stone

I just wanted to ask everyone to be praying for my family and me. I was sitting here last night reading the posts and I started getting a back ache. Within 10 minutes it was so bad, I couldn't stand it. My dh took me to the ER, it was so bad I couldn't sit in a chair, stand or lean on dh. The nurse told me to sit down in the wheelchair and sit back. I told her get me a bed I needed to lie down. She then told me she had to get my temp., "Open your mouth and then shut it" I told her I was going to VOMIT. Which I did, all that good Easter dinner (sorry for the graphic description). Then she wanted to take my blood pressure, right. Anyway she got me into a bed within 10 minutes of arriving. They got the IV's running and gave me meds for nausea and pain, sent me for a CAT scan and confirmed - Kidney Stone. The dr. came in and said to go home and wait for it to pass. Before I could get ready to go home, it hit again. More meds and a bed for the night. I had a surgery procedure this afternoon - blasted the KS because it was blocking something. I'm home now on some good meds and don't feel to bad. This pain was worse than child birth. Please pray for us, we really need this vacation that we will be taking in less than 3 weeks. I would hate to disappoint the kids with not going to Disney. Thanks for the prayers in advance.

Owie! Oh, you poor thing!! We will be praying that all of the pieces of stone pass painlessly and this is the last of the troubles.

Praying for you G'ma... I had a kidney stone 6 mos. after dh and I were married. I thought I was dying! I spent the night in the ER having tests run, only to be sent home to endure the pain for 3 days before it passed. It was awful!! Sorry you had to go through it!

Oh, I'm so sorry! That's awful! I hope everything was blasted enough to not cause you problems! Is it still in there, or did the surgery get it out? I will certainly pray for you and your family!!!

HUGS!!!

I had a good night last night. I sure pray they got it all and it all passes ok. I tried going without the meds this morning, but had to take them. Not sure what the pain is from, maybe the procedure itself. Throat is still sore, too. Thanks for all the prayers, they are appreciated.
