Posting Reality

Well, I haven't went to the ER yet, still no blood in the urine, still no problems urinating, so I have no idea what is going on. Still have pain about a 6 maybe, in the kidney stone area of my back. I am self medicating when the pain gets a little much.

So the self medicating and the pain are combining to slow down my attention to the blog. 

Bear with me, gotta get over this so I can concentrate.

  1. The problem with pain is you can’t identify what exactly is causing it. The pain could be a jagged stone scraping the plumbing, fluid pressure from a blockage, infection in the plumbing or the kidney, or an infection that is transitioning into sepsis which is the immune system going into max overdrive. From personal experience neither you or a doctor’s external exam can determine with certainty what is happening I strongly suggest bloodwork to guide your decision

    1. Believe me, I think you are correct. I will probably head to the ER, just trying to get over the anxiety. I have emphysema and I dread going to the ER and they won't be aware as much as I need them to be. I hate hospitals and rarely trust people in the medical profession.

  2. Stone Breaker does the trick for my kidney stones. https://www.amazon.com/STONE-BREAKER-Chanca-Piedra-Gallbladder/dp/B01FERIHYE
    There’s a liquid form by the same guys but I can’t seem to get a clean link for it.
    If I’m in pain I take the liquid until I feel human again. If I’m just getting that first twinge I take the pills, and I keep taking them for about a week after the pain stops.

  3. Wait too long to get a diagnosis and treatment and you could end up losing the function of a kidney...or worse.

    1. Thanks for the warning danielbarger, and I'm not taking it lightly. I have a bag packed for the ER if it gets any worse. I'm having some weird thoughts about the maybe diagnosis after the last day or two. I'll try to post what I'm thinking tomorrow.
