Kidney stones SUCK!!!
 
This has nothing whatsoever to do with WC, but being a member for several months now, I feel obligated to share.

I was taking a squat this evening when all of a sudden I get this immense pain in my lower left abdomen, I though something had ruptured, so I call out to my stepson from the pot and tell him to dial 911 (poor guy, I scared him to death)

All the neighbors came out to see when my yard was littered with firetrucks and ambulences.(Its a small town) anyway after 3 shots of pain killer, an X-ray and Cat Scan, they said I passed a stone the size of a grain of beach sand.

I'm only 26, I didn;t think I'd have to worry about that shit till my 40's or 50's.

AAARRRGGGGHH!!!!!!!

ouch!
Glad to hear you're ok.
yessir, kidney stones are a beeyatch!
I had a stone a year ago , I'm 27 now.
When I was in the emergency room getting checked out and doped up, there was a lady in there with a kidney stone as well. She said she had birthed three children and the pain from the stone made the birthing process almost pain-free by comparison. I was in so much pain I wanted to hug her, she understood! So take it easy, and drink lots of water, best of luck to you.
I am,

pedro.

I'm not going to go into detail but I'm going 20 and I had one last year. I was in bed crying for like 4 days. Just drink a lot of Cranberry juice.
