Worst pain ever


Sent from my iPhone using Operation Sports

The pain came out of nowhere. I was fine then all of a sudden I wasn't. I had no idea what it was so I took a field trip to the ER. I was pretty skeptical about it being kidney stones right up until they had me pee in a cup and I passed it.
It was almost like it belonged in a sitcom or something.

Me: Gee doc I really don't think its a kidney stone. Could it be a hernia or something?
Dr: We'll run some tests, but right now we need a urine sample.
*hands cup*
Me: All right, if you insist.
*... ... ...tinkle*
Me:I feel better
*doc holds up the cup with a obvious stone floating in it*
Me:...that was in there before I peed in it.

The procedure consist of a laser going through your man area to break them down then you pee out sand

In terms of pain though, does the procedure itself hurt? Or is the pain primarily from the stone acting like a pin ball in your kidney?

re: Off-Topic

The procedure doesn’t hurt because you are put out.

But afterwards it hurts because you have a stint in and peeing is pure hell

Didn't know it was something you needed to be put under for.

Think my man parts just turtled into my midsection a bit.

Yep.

The tool/laser they use goes through your ureter which I don't think any man would want to be awake for. They then "blast" the stones to break them down into very tiny pieces (smaller than grain of sand is goal) so that you can easily and less painfully pass them.

The stint that you have either has a string on it or doesn't. With a string after the few days of recovery you can remove it yourself, very unpleasant. If it doesn't have a string, your doctor has to remove with a tool, which is even more unpleasant.

Just messing. I’ve never moved far from home, but I imagine Texas to SC was a major change. Gotta do what’s best for you. Good luck!!

Haha luckily I'll have like 4 stores to choose from. I'll be excited to be back in Texas.

re: Off-Topic

lol infomercials. Those over the top, exaggerated "person can't do normal things" examples they show.From not being able to grab or hold things, to not able to pour anything into a cup, and so many other of these "infomercial fails".

The latest I saw...one for an umbrella. Sure, the product they're advertising does look cool, but it's funny seeing them advertise the difference between their product and the old way of doing things, and making it seem like owning a regular umbrella is the biggest struggle ever.

Like people don't know how to close an umbrella before entering a car or house lol. And once you do get inside, it's like the umbrella will drip out an entire glass of water lol.

Just funny how people in infomercials made the most basic of things look like the biggest struggles in the world. I wonder what commonly used product is next?

To be fair, these things wouldn't still be around if nobody was buying it.

And some people are that clueless. Seeing the types of stupidity people do that winds up on the internet, I'm sure there's people who legitimately don't know how to open an umbrella, or use a hose, or hold multiple items at once.

Not as stupid, but I had a moment where someone I knew was having trouble logging into an account. I thought maybe they just forgot password, which happens. I looked over to see issue.....in the username box where it says to enter your name, they literally put "your name". Been dealing alot lately with people who can't comprehend such basic things.

You lying?

If you are being honest I am giving you a task. Befriend this person. Spend time with them.

Then return to us and share the tales you will undoubtedly acquire.

It actually happened. I'd rather not spend more time than needed. The amount I do with certain people already I find is making me treat people stupider than they are, and once I am with regular people again, I almost forget they're not stupid because I've gotten too use to certain other people.

People really gotta just use common sense more often and also not take things too literal. At times I hate being around people who are easily manipulated, lack awareness and are gullible. Only because of reasons I mentioned before. I don't want to get too use to that, or treat regular people that way, forgetting they're not stupid.
