...have had every indication that I had a kidney stone problem, seemingly backed up by what clearly looked like kidney stones in my right kidney in an ultrasound last spring when they were prepping me for the chemo drug, and that kidney has been giving me fits lately I thought.
Had a cat scan at one of our facilities and it turns out it's not kidney stones, but something with my spine adjacent to my kidney. I feared it would be something like that more than passing a kidney stone. I don't have a history of good luck when the health roulette wheel slows to a stop.
Now I have to see an orthopedic surgeon to figure out exactly what's going on and what we can do about it.
I hate going to doctors.

Hopefully whatever it is, it never reaches the pain level of passing a stone.

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Been dealing with some stuff as well. Getting old ain't for sissies.

Don't let the old man in, you bunch of sissies! You know I am just kidding. All we can do is just keep fighting the good fight. I know my life is never going to be the same, but I continue to carry on the best I can and still try to enjoy life the best I can. I wish all of luck with your medical deficiencies and hope you stand strong like I have tried to do. One doctor told my daughter I was going to die last year. I'm still here, bishes! And I hope we are ALL still here for years to come!

There is one thing though. My last CT scan shows that my liver is normal. I'm still wondering how that could be the case.

Just hang in for the next college football season - and after that one, then the next one.
Everyone have a great week and enjoy the weekend. Hump day today.

Hope your team can get to the bottom of what is causing the discomfort.
