Big Day - Kidney Stone Surgery
I arrived this morning as their first patient of the day before 6:00 a.m. By 6:15 a.m. I was in my hospital gown with IV in place and ready for surgery. Some where around 7:30 a.m. they wheeled me to the operating room at Research Medical Hospital. Within seconds I was out like a light.
When I woke up the doctor or someone was rattling my kidney stone (broken into 4 pieces) in a jar beside my ear.
They gave me two pain pills and let me go home about 11:00 a.m. and I spent the rest of the day sleeping. When I went to the bathroom I was bleeding and hurting. The bleeding stopped some time before we went to bed.
They left a stint up inside me with a string hanging out to be removed Sunday. I a dreading that already.
