I really am stoned

It's official. I had a CT scan yesterday and it showed several stones in both kidneys.

What does the doctor say? Can you take some meds to shrink them? Can they use sonic soundwaves on them to blast them apart?

Thanks ladies. Right now I'm on the drink, drink, and drink some more routine, hoping to flush them out. Even more worrisome were the other things that showed up the CT - things no one expected (but apparently none too serious). I actually feel like writing tonight, so I think that's a good sign.

Oh, God! I've been through this. The first one was AWFUL, but I didn't know what it was, so I didn't do the water thing until it was actually passed. OUCH. For the second one, I was drinking water constantly and I didn't even notice when it passed (except for seeing it in the strainer). So you CAN get through this with practically no pain! Here's hoping you do.

I hope that this isn't too painful for you Sharon. xox K
