Sooooooo! The doctor called just a few minutes ago! So glad I didn't have to wait until Thursday!

Anyway. The doctor said that it is indeed a kidney stone. It has traveled two thirds of the way to my bladder. He wants me to try the medication for a couple of weeks. He hopes that since it's so close to the end, that the medication will open the tube up enough to pass the stone.But if it doesn't, he's booking me for surgery so they can go on up and take it out themselves. So now we have a definite plan of action and I'm happy..... finally. Now I'll be counting down the days until I see a kidney stone in that pee strainer. And if I don't, I'll be counting down the days until surgery. Needless to say, I'm pretty excited. Finally this will all be over. It may take a few weeks, but now I've gotta better pain control on my side so I don't mind waiting the next two - three weeks. I probably won't be suffering like I have been so it's all good.

Now you can all do your happy dances for me. I know I am! =D

Love,

and her kidney stone (&) <---that's what it looks like. lol

So my tooth has been killing me. Come to find out the infection I had last August is still here. It just won't go away even tho I had a rootcanal and a few doses of antibiotics. So last Monday I went to see Dr Moll and he checked the rootcanal and did an x-ray. Everything's fine — except for the infection. He gave me some antibiotics that have had me sleeping just about all day and all night for the past five days. But my mouth still hurts. I can still feel the pressure from the infection. Did I happen to mention that Dr Moll says I have to have oral surgery because of this? Yeah, that's right surgery. They have to lift the gum away from my tooth and clean the infection out, then stitch me back up. Did I also mention that I can't even get in for a consult until the 24th? Srsly. All I can do is sleep and take ibuprofen like it's candy. And it hurts to eat.

Basically, I'm a mess.
