Got another attack @ 3 in the morning Wed. Had my wife call 911 and sent me off to have this Kidney Stone removed.
I was scheduled for Tues, but it didn't want to wait. This sucker was 9mm in size.
I never want to go through that again.........

Damn! Hope your feeling better. Hurts just thinking about it.

Sharkey, I feel for you brother!!!
I also had a nice 9mm about three yrs ago.
They got mine out the hard way (no, they didn't cut me open) because insurance wouldn't pay for the lithotriptor (sp?)
Why is it that the attacks only happen at 3a.m.??

No good

ou ou ou ou ou man that sucks 9mm makes me cringe thinking about it.

Hope You feel better Shark........ That sucks man. Ouch !!!!!!!

I've had them twice, both times treated with lithotripsy. It is a miracle cure. In at 8 am out by noon, cured.

I say run a 9mm rod up the insurance companys parts and let them see how it feels and then maybe they will allow more things to be approved.

I feel for you Sharkey. I passed a tiny 3mm stone in Nov and the pain was incredible. I couldn't imagine what you're going through.

Been there myself. Sorry to here that.
