Had a stone I couldn't pass because it was to big. Went to the Lahey Clinic in Boston for a procedure called a Lithotripsy. They do a spinal then hoist you up in the air and lower you into a tank of water and pound you with sound waves. Turned the stone to sand. After the spinal wore off I felt like I had been beat. The sand had to removed via a scoop because like most wet sand it clumped, But that's another story.
Yikes! That is what they are talking about doing, Lithotripsy, but they didn't quite describe it that way have an appointment this morning so I can get the CT results and they are going to look in bladder. Hope I can made it, freezing rain this morning, yuck!
You read my mind.....
I am now pushing for 4 nights in Hawaii (on Kauai) and then going on the TA in May.
I say go for it. Should I write a note of recommendation?
Maybe I should change my screen name to 'pebbles'
