Update: OUCH!!! @#$%^!!! "This too shall pass..."

I just passed the stone. It's the size of a lentil--and it has POINTED EDGES.
Jagged. LOTS of them. I would have hated to step on it in my bare feet, let alone passed it through my bladder.
Whew....glad I was off today!

I'm all right--and more than a little sore. Not as sore as I'd be if I were a GUY, but definitely not smiling. Fortunately I have Percocet and Pyridium, which is kind of like an 'internal bandaid'--a pill that soothes from the inside. That will help a lot. The worst is over. I've passed so many in my life that I fortunately know the drill and what to expect. Right now I'm seriously whacked on pain meds and I'm going to treat myself to a warm soothing bath with some Philosophy bubble bath (gotta choose between Pumpkin Spice Muffin or Creme Brulee scents) and I've got some lovely homemade soup in the fridge for supper before I 'do an Alphonse' and go cuddle up with three kitties on my bed!

You should start keeping them and giving them names. *offers tea?*

::tea is delicious, thanks! **huggles**::
I'm bringing this one in to work--I've named it Mick Jagged...not the biggest but certainly the ugliest fucker I've ever passed and with the nastiest looking sharp edges. Bet I could hit some serious soprano notes now!

::snerk:: When I had my gallbladder out years ago it was because I didn't have one big stone but a shitload of little teeny ones--I told everybody I had a Stones Concert--but this evil little fucker really surprised me.

God, hon, I can't even imagine what that's like. You're a far braver soul than I am.

Would that I had a choice about it! ::grins:: Usually you feel the agony of a stone moving but it doesn't generally hurt when it comes out--boy, this one did, and I still feel very raw and 'scraped"I'm just glad it's over and I have plenty of perscription pain meds to get me through the night!

Mick Jagged...OMG LOL. Poor thing. *huggles* I hope you will feel better soon.

Thanks--and the worst is over since it's out--I'm just gonna be a little 'tender' for awhile!

Ugh that sucks. The pain, I mean. :) Hope you are feeling much better now. Have a restful weekend.
