It passed!!!

Okay, so just an update on the last post. After a what can only be described as a roller-coaster of a week, I finally passed my stone this morning. :) Just thought you might like to know that, and maybe see what it looks like. And no, the passing part didn't hurt a bit (thankfully). I wouldn't have even noticed if I wasn't watching. haha

Thank you to everyone who called this week or showed concern for me...it really helped a lot.

What I'm most disappointed about is how that TINY little thing caused soooo much discomfort and pain! I would have rather had a baby - at least it would have been worth it!

What I'm most amazed about is how the CT scan even picked that up. Modern medicine and technology - simply amazing.

What I'm looking forward to - not feeling like I have to go to the bathroom every 5 minutes (though, yes, I should probably still keep my liquid intake up)

What I'm NOT looking forward to - the hospital bill.



Look at how jagged those edges are!! Sheesh.

Thanks for reading!!

what i'm curious about, though i'm not sure i want to know, is how you got it once it had pass. peeing in a cup? grabbing your rubbers and sticking your hand in the toilet? ...

Ouch! Hopefully next time you're in that much pain, you'll get a baby out of the deal. ;)

oh man, my dad's a urologist and so I grew up on horror stories about the dangers of stones! You poor dear! I'm glad it's all over!


Wow Janneke! I wish I had read your post earlier so I could have brought some comfort...something...okay, I don't know what I would have brought...it's not like you were eating or anything. Anyway, I am so glad that it passed and you are feeling better! Sounds like it was an awful time. Good thing you have such a wonderful husband!!
