Was thinking, so that's where cALidama comes from!
Hope you don't have to go through that again, sounds very unpleasant.

My daughter is actually having a kidney stone obliterated via laser today...7 mm stone lodged in her left renal pelvis. She was passing blood for a month before we finally got the diagnosis
. She had a stent placed up and into the kidney 10 days ago in preparation for today. Hoping for an in and out procedure and home this afternoon to make a pitcher of manhattans to enjoy with friends, and I wish you have a Merry, blissfully pain free Xmas, Al.

Looking forward to future blog entry about the supreme soil mix including the extracted stones that will have any tree ramified in a season and at the same time adding 3 inches of trunk growth. Give growstone a run for their money.
But in all seriousness, get well soon Al.

shit dave. good luck to her. It's one thing when it is ourselves, but when it's children it is an entire different feeling. Having both my kids undergo surgery 2 weeks apart this year i know the feeling well. hoping 2015 brings health and happiness to all.

That sucks... will she be able to go home after the procedure or will she be stuck in the hospital for Christmas?
Hope she feels better soon.

She should be good to go home later on this afternoon with no ill effects (maybe an anesthesia hangover for a bit) assuming all goes well. The women in my family are super tough...the guys, not so much
. Thanks for the well wishes.

Shit man, just seen this. I just had a 7.9 millimeter stone lasered and retrieved, I spent a week in Depends diapers pissing blood with a string hanging out of the little general connected to a stent, damn health care would pay for the procedure. But I had to pull the stent out by the attached string as that part was not life threatening, loads of fun. I have no one I hate bad enough to wish one of these procedures on. Remember to drink tons of water to prevent this by keeping yourself flushed out, I managed to go 20 years since my last blocking stone by practicing proper hydration.
BTW I was on my way home in less than an hour after coming too from the anesthesia.

Thats what I did also, except mine was the BIG General. They had to add extra string on mine. Problem was, after removal of the stent, which my wife pulled out by tying to the front door, my ureter collapsed and I have had the same feeling as having a stone in there. Been in bed for three days eating 10/325 norco like gummy bears. This is the first I have sat and typed in three days.
Dave, hope your daughter is able to share in the Joy tomorrow.
Merry Christmas everyone and I already know what my resolution is going to be.....more beer!

Trusting your wife to remove it was your first mistake ! I had contracts to start in Florida so I had no choice but to drive down here with the stent in, at least it came out fine and the next day I was back to work as even with the insurance it was still costly as you know.
