Lord. An office mate of mine had some bladder issue where the old camera up the pee-pee to check it out. He said the doc remarked that he should be able to view all like this, but if not they had ANOTHER ultra sound device, that had a large dildo protuberance on it, and guess what...it went up the back side. Fortunately, they didnt need that one, so he still has his virginity, if not his pride...intact.Thanks brother me too! 37 years is certainly the longest for me, with my first two lasting about 4.5 years each.
They insert a camera up through your penis, through your bladder, and into the tubes from your kidneys to find the stone and then break it up mechanically so that the pieces will pass. They insert a stent so that the kidney drains afterwards, because it causes the tube to swell shut afterwards. They then remove the stent after the swelling goes down.
Commiseration brother! Hope you feel better sooner than later!
Thanks, I'll pass it on! He does seem to be getting better.
53F @ 90% RH, rain and wind at 8mph, predicted to reach 56F with good air quality.
Thank ya'll for all the good thoughts and commiserations. I haven't passed it yet, but have been kidney stone pain free since yesterday around noon, so I think it made it my bladder. Some pain in my right foot furniture locator that I barely remember causing because of focus elsewhere.
Weak as a kitten this morning, but was able to eat yesterday afternoon and have an appetite this morning.
More shootings and usual chicanery and we now have a public dumping issue to go along with the homeless dumping issue. Remember when Portland was considered one of the cleanest cities in the US?
