So I've been having kidney stone pain for two weeks as of last Saturday. I called the dr on Wednesday and she said if I wasn't feeling better by Friday that I needed to come see her. Well, Thursday, Friday & Saturday I felt fine so I didn't call her back. Then yesterday I woke up with pain. At first I thought it was a gas pain bc I was really gassy. But then the pain moved in to my back and I knew it was the kidney stones.

The first time I took a percocet it worked quickly. But then bc I felt better I started moving around and doing stuff. That made the pain come back and it came back worse! When I could finally take another one, it didn't even touch the pain. When I went to bed I fell asleep pretty quickly but only slept an hour and woke up in excruciating pain. So this time I took two pills and I slept for two hours.

I wrote on the white board that I took two pills and when I woke up there was a message from my mom. She was mad that I took two bc she thought I was only supposed to take one. When I talked to her I told her the dr said I could take 1 - 2 every 4 - 6 hours as needed. Apparently she didn't know that. Thanks for listening to me when I told you that on Wednesday.

So I called the clinic this morning. The earliest they could fit me in was during my mom's dentist appointment. She had a rootcanal done last week. So I told them later was better. Now I have an appointment at 4:30. I'm actually excited bc hopefully they can do something for me. But I'm not seeing my pcp bc she doesn't work on Mondays. But the doctor I'm seeing is Jeff's doctor and he thinks he's really awesome. So it's all good. Now if it could just be time to go.

I'll update again when I know more.
