Trip to the ER..

I woke up Sunday morning around 5:30 with this excruciating pain in my lower back, which just kept getting worse. Rissa woke up and said she was taking me to the hospital (which I whined about for a bit) then ended up giving in when I could hardly stand. So we get there and Rissa ran in to get someone to come out and bring me inside because I could barely walk, if at all. They never came out so I hobbled in and held the buzzer down until someone opened the door. After the usual 20 questions they brought out a wheelchair and they took me to a room. I waited for another 15 minutes or so and the nurse came in and asked some more questions. Finally the doctor came in and poked around on my back.. and told me I had kidney stones! They gave me a shot for the pain and some benadryl for the swelling and took me off to get x-rays. Then I came back to the room and they came in and said I could go home and had to follow up Wednesday with some doctor they recommended on the paperwork and sent me off with a prescription. I got home and the shot they gave me wore off and I was writhing in pain again...then Gavin and Dave came over to give me a blessing(thanks so much!) and started to feel better. It still hurts sometimes, more at night. Hopefully this goes away soon.. I had no idea kidney stones hurt THIS bad... I have never had one before, and I hope I never ever do again. ::Sigh::
