erica_c 4 Posted July 22, 2013 Waiting for kidney stone surgery I sleeved 6/11/13. I've been dealing with this stone for weeks I was only back to work for 2.5 weeks before this began. My work is really unhappy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

erica_c 4 Posted July 22, 2013 I did work with 3 kidney stones for 4 days. I passed one at work now one is caught above my bladder and one in my kidney. Worst part is I am a nurse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CocoCocoon 6 Posted July 22, 2013 Poor thing! Have you had kidney stones before or is this the first time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erica_c 4 Posted July 22, 2013 I've had them before but small enough to pass. It hurts, drink tons of Water, pee alot and its done. This is the worst I've had and biggest cause I can't pass it and it took close to 2 weeks to see an urologist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
notmeanymore 629 Posted July 22, 2013 Oh no. At least you can rid yourself of the painful stone(s). I had one before my sleeve and oh lordy I thought I was going to die from the pain. Ive actually had to have surgery twice since sleeve. One was a ventral hernia about 5 months post op and last month I had an emergency appendectomy. Im sure my work wasnt real happy about that either but there isnt anything you can do about that. When surgery is needed you have to do it. Good luck with your kidney stone surgery.
