Guest guest Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Kate~ I haven't experiencd kidney stones, so I can't tell you what to expect. I could tell you what I've heard, but I'd rather tell you that I'm thinking of you and that I know you a will get through this. This has to be so terribly frustrating for you, after all you've been through so far. I do sympathize with you. I hope you start feeling much better soon. Love and blessings...

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 I'm so sorry! Some times bad things really do come in heaps (rather than in threes...), don't they? The year of 's diagnosis was like that for us, we call it our "year from hell"... Hope you'll get out of your "heap" real soon!love/Reb>> Hey all!

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 My big brother in NJ emailed me recently and said he's spent the night in ER trying to pass kidney stones - I just emailed him right back and said "Mom pissing you off again?" (his mother in law lives nearby). He ignored me again. So I knew I was right yet another issue?Hey all!
