Anyone ever have a CT Scan

[Zem18]

Yeah totally changed my diet and life. Got the pain driving to work on 9-11-15. Made it to work, then got back in the car and drove to the ER. Surprised I made it driving myself. The second worst pain is the kidney stent they put in. Worst 3 weeks of my life, that is until they took it out.

^{Glad you are doing good Zem!!}

 

^{I have had 3 stones, none I am sure as big as that since I did not go to ER. First one I thought I was dying. I laid on the living room floor for 8 hours and could not move. Second one I had driving to a meeting in another state. 3 hours laying in the back seat of the car in pain. The last one was another out of towner at the hotel 5 hours laying in bed in pain. I have done a lot of stupid or dangerous things to hurt myself. I have broken ribs, nose, teeth, fingers, ankle with a 7 inch steel plate, perforated my spleen. Been in half a dozen car wrecks including a two car head on total and nothing has come close to the pain those little beeatches cause!!}

Thanks Fletch. I agree the pain is awful but pray you don't ever need the stent. The removal of it as stated above is no fun and it is an office visit with no sedation. Nuff said.

Well , I had the CT Scan last Thursday and no news yet ...... Maybe "no News is good news" .

I had an X-Ray of my kidneys a couple months ago and was told no problem that nothing showed . I was having some blood show and told my doctor I was going to cut back on my coumadin . He gave me the okay but had me take the C.T. Scan last thursday . He talked to me tonight and told me I have a stone in my right kidney and some Diverticulosis on the left side of my colon . The latter is common with some of old folks . 

So , I should get a call Monday to make an appointment with a specialist . I really don't need this during Deer Season ! 

Better get busy and get a deer tomorrow !

Good luck with your treatment Eddie and good luck tomorrow!!

I had one a couple months ago.. They told me I would feel a sudden rush and it may feel like I peed myself but I actually wouldn't. The whole experience was strange to say the least.
