Kidney stones can be nasty too.

Just had to have some surgically obliterated...

Nasty stuff, splint in liver that has to be removed later. 

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Redwhizz.  Good news is at least I know what it is.  Not fatal unless you decide to kill yourself.

I’m still trying to pass this stone.  This has been the worst Christmas ever.  The pain meds they gave me made me violently ill both Sunday night and last night.  I went back to ER today to switch meds.  Hoping for the best

There is a backstory here.  I am going through a divorce, made plans for my son to come over last night and grill some steaks asn hang out and watch movies.  All that went out the window with me getting sick.  It is depressing to say the least.
