We Have Stone!

The wait is over. The kidney stone is here. Not as big as it felt passing from my kidney to my bladder.Here is Stone #2 (June 2005) on the Left and Stone #3 (today) on the right. Fairly close in size, but #3 has that wicked point on the side. It passed a little faster than #2 if I remember right, but I probably don't. That's the sort of pain one WANTS to forget.
Stone #1 came and went without being noticed. The doctor mis-diagnosed it, so I wasn't looking for it to exit. It happened in the winter of 1999. #2 was summer of 2005 (5.5 yrs later) #3 was Today (4 yrs later). So stay tuned... If i stay on this schedule, winter of 2012 I should be due for another.
