pippy Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I've only spoken to one friend that has experienced them. It didn't sound like Fun. Best wishes for a speedy and as-pain-free-as-possible treatment/recovery. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a Doctor but it doesn't sound like you have kidney stones cause the symptoms don't much. It sounds more like appendix pain symptoms.

Gibson Artist Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I've been battling kidney stones for a week now. Pretty painful and uncomfortable feeling. I'm going for a contrast X-ray tomorrow to see if they can find it and how to deal with it... I had 5 gallstones in my gallbladder last year and had it to have it removed. That was a pain like nothing ive ever felt, 7 hours of agony and my meme' told my mother that it was the worst pain she's ever felt too. Even worse then childbirth, i assume kidney stones are just as painful, so i definately feel for ya! Hope you can get rid of it soon and as others have suggested check some websites about diet to hopefully prevent future outbreaks if at all possible. Stones in your vital organs are definately not fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the pain is kinda higher on your side it could be gallstones, lower toward the groin could be appendix but only your doctor could tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny V Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Making you wait so long is cruel and unusual punishment. I only had to wait two days from the time I went to the ER and had the surgery. Hang in there. I hope they gave you something for the pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
