Thank you to all who prayed. :) I just got back home, and here's what is going on. I have kidney stones in both kidneys, but the one that's bothering, is 2 millimeters big and is very close to the bladder. I've been given some pain meds and have to start drinking alot more water than usual, and "usual" is already alot..lol

So please keep praying that the stone passes on it's own, and soon. And that I won't have to go back to the ER.. AND that my pee returns to normal, with no blood in it, because as of right now, there's blood in it..

Thank you.. :)

The blood in the urine is a normal symptom with kidney stones. Glad it wasn't anything more serious. :)

Thank you, Gabe. I'm more worried about not being able to pee. Because when I have that pain, I can't manage more than a drop or two.. But this morning, my bladder was full.. and I said "thank you God". :) Being able to pee has never felt so good. LOL

It hurts to pee now. And my bladder feels constantly full.. :( Hopefully that stone is ready to pass.. die, kick the bucket..get a burial at sea..whatever.. LOL

Please pray it will pass SOON and without too much pain. I've heard it likened to the pain of childbirth, or broken bones.. *shudders*

I don't know, but this thread isn't for biblical stuff. This is more of a fun thread. :) You should start a thread asking who the two witnesses are, though. It's an interesting subject..

I just want to say that I work for a company called Central research and what we do is conduct surveys over the phone. We call a different US state each day. Today we're calling Missouri. Please if any of you gets a call from is, help us out and don't hang up.

It's definitely an intense pain, but it's pretty individual to each person. I passed a 5mm stone...ALL THE WAY...3 years ago, and when it started it's journey, I didn't feel it shredding the soft tissue of my urethra. My body went into protect mode and I began vomiting violently.

Blue, I have to tell you, after reading one of your earlier posts, that soup broth is NOT a good source of hydration and may actually dehydrate you depending on how salty it is. It's like drinking salt water. Your kidneys use up more fluid flushing out the salt than what you took in (so you have less water in you than before you drank it).

Caffeinated drinks are also not good because caffeine is a natural diuretic. So no coffee, tea or starbucks. Stick to water, juice, gatorade.... stuff taht is not salty or has caffeine. Soda only has a little caffeine so its probably ok.

This is all to prevent more kidney stones.

Also, Blue.... if you are going to partake in soups, coffee or whatnot.. be sure to drink at least equal the amount of water to offset their dehydrating effects. That is on top of of the amount of water you should already be drinking.
