Brother-in-law had a few stones. Absolutely floored him. Three day Hospital visit and a nice $90k fee to pay afterwards. Pretty sure he was regularly drinking mountain dew and lots of cola.
90k bill?
LOL

Well it looks like I was slightly confused as to what they did to me the other week and it looks like they completely nuked the stone and just left the stent in - I only find this out after going back into A & E yesterday with severe pain in my kidney and they mentioned that I'm scheduled to go in on the 29th dec for things to be finished. So a letter turns up today telling me to go to the central treatment suite at the local hospital which all seems fine until I check what they actually do there and it would appear that they are going to remove the stent under local anesthetic. I'm not really sure I can cope with seeing someone inserting something into my ***** and then watching them drag something out .
I guess my next stage is to try and speak to the consultant and DEMAND a general anesthetic.
Through each stage of treatment they have struggled in controlling the pain and even with the last General anesthhetic it felt like someone was sitting on my chest until I went under so the thought of having this last bit done by using some numbing gel has me feeling slightly worried that unless they smother me with the stuff it won't work.
