Me.... Ive spent the majority of the week in bed! I'm having issues with my back and finally drug my butt to my family care doctor yesterday..... Nothing serious... just thinks I've pulled a muscle or something.... but it hurts like hell to walk. It started hurting Monday.... and I had just had a CT done last week... but hadn't heard back from that doctor yet, so I went up to the hospital Monday afternoon and got the radiologist report. Seems I have several (which according to the dictionary is more than 2 or 3 but not many, wtf??) tiny kidney stones in my right kidney... And I have multiple cysts on my ovary.... 2 of which are kinda big..... and now I've got back pain..... Lucky me! ((I'd like to know why it is that the radiologist can't put the exact number of things he sees.... can he not count? I don't want to see the words several or many.... I want to know Exactly how many!!)) So I still haven't heard back from the one doctor.... so I called there the
other day, and played stupid..... I asked the nurse if the doctor had had a chance to look over it... And she said he hadn't, but that she would put a copy of it on his desk and he would call me back.... well... I'll give him another week, then I'm going to call the nurse again and start this process over again.... fun fun!In other words I'm moving a little slower than normal over here... But I'm trying. It's hard to stay awake in between all this medicine. And believe me I'm not one to take pain killers but today they are my best friend:) I just couldn't take it any more!
Ok.... Sorry to gripe again..... but you know what it's like when you don't feel good.... All you want is your Momma and a nice bowl of chicken noodle soup.......
Until Next Time.......

Lots of good health wishes to you Katie:)
You are such a courageous young woman to carry on as you do regardless of all the pain you endure on a daily basis. You certainly have more than your fair share. And, you are such a good, caring mother. Your love of miniatures is surely a blessing in disguise. Surely, it provides you with an outlet to vent all the frustrations you describe. Your pain touches me deeply. Please, don't ever give up. Nothing is hopeless. Miracles and healings do happen in our time. Sometimes, they are even mind-boggling!
Katie, I have gone through the kidney stones thing. Sometimes they really can't tell how many. They kind of overlap and hide in the kidneys on the x-ray. Good luck with all of this! I hope you get some results soon.
BTW, I can't get the link that you put in the entry to work.
For several years I had a horrible job at a company run by two women horrendous. I worked side by side with one of two, was a pain ... I could express my discomfort only sigh, sigh, and apparently often (in fact they were puffs of air for not trying to get death by suffocation), and the wicked witch could not stand him, but it was vital for me, was my only outlet.
So: even complaining, I'm here to listen to you and I send you an affectionate hug :-)

P.S. The doctors are still rather vague about kidney stones ... My brother, even after having undergone surgery, has never managed to find out if they have removed them to him ...
....Casey... I changed the link for you.... just click on the word here... Don't know why I didn't do that before?!
