The Glass Is Always Half Full Unless It's Week Two Of A Kidney Stone

I am one of those perky troopers, you know the one you hate first thing in the morning cause they are so dang bouncy. This morning though I am seeing my glass is a little emptier than usual. I have been battling a kidney stone for almost two week.

I have had these suckers before, this is number six for me. Aren't I the lucky one. Other than the first one that only caused a tinge of pain and took a month to escape they have all come out quickly. This one however is taking its sweet time. I get a day or two of little pain only to have it come back with a force of ouch.

I don't take meds other than my heart stuff because it makes me "high". Children's tylenol gives me a jolt. Not this time.......pass the extra strength variety please.

And I am done with my rant. If pain is an indicator it will pass at some point today. Until then if you hear a banshee wail coming from Toronto I apologize now.

Oh, you poor thing. That happened to me once and I was rushed to emerg. The doctors couldn't give me enough morphine fast enough to kill the pain. I would gladly go through labour pains anytime as opposed to that.

Hope that the stone has passed by now and that you are feeling better.
