Kidney stones - they still suck

So, after multiple visits to multiple doctors - one of them finally did something.

The diagnoses - 1 9.8mm stone in my right kidney, a 9.8 stone in my left kidney and at lest 2 more smaller stones.

Yesterday I had lithotripsy done on my right kidney and had a stint put in each side.  I'll have them for at least 2 weeks.  Then I will have to go in for actual surgery to remove the stones from my left side.  I can already notice a difference in my pain level. They gave me some good drugs to manage it if it gets too bad.  I was on them when I called my Dad last night.  Whooooo - I was quite the chatty Cathy!  My Dad's not a big talker on the phone, so it was pretty funny.

I just took my pills with the intention of going to sleep, but here I am...
Anyways....
I guess I'll update y'all more later.
