Guest guest Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 hey yall- i know we have a lot of pray-ers here in the RA family. my grandson Mick is nine years old and has a 6mm kidneystone. he's been taken to ER twice almost out of his mind with pain. They were supposed to refer him to a urologist on Monday. My daughter finally had to go postal on her primary doc's office staff yesterday after his second trip to ER. (I could literally hear him screaming in the background while I talked to his mom.) They discovered that their insurance person had never contacted the urologist. He's on medicaid and we know how some doctor's offices treat medicaid patients, don't we. Long story short, he is at the hospital about to have that laser or ultrasound or whatever to try and break up the kidney stone. Please be praying that works, or they will have to send him to Children's in Dallas for surgery since the kidneystone is way too big for him to pass. It's very rare for a kid his age to have this happen, but he takes after his mama and she is prone to them. He's Nana's boy and this has been so hard on him. Will let you know how things go on. Thanks, Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
