Please pray for me. I'm having a "minor" outpatient surgery tomorrow to remove 2 kidney stones that are 4 mm. Pray that it goes well and that they can test the stones to see what I can do to lower my chance of getting them again.

Hey friends, I am still unwell. I was extremely dizzy a few days ago and went back to the ER. Doc says I might have vertigo. I've been treating my allergies and trying to get my sinuses clear, hope that works. The real issue is work, I got a new job a month and a half ago and I've had to miss 2 whole shifts and leave early a few times because of my kidney stone and now vertigo. I got doctor's notes and my supervisor likes me, but I need the money and my co-workers get stuck covering for me. Plus my hubby is stuck doing most of our housework. Hopefully my follow-up appt. will be the last one for a long time.

Please pray that I will get well soon and not have to miss more work.

Went to see a Nurse Practitioner yesterday, she was pretty cool. We are trying to get rid of the dizziness from 3 angles, antibiotic, flonase, and physical therapy. Thanks for your prayers. Praise God that I found a good primary care person.

Well I'm finally getting some resolution. Physical therapy took care of my vertigo very quickly, I'm not having any trouble with that. I did end up in the ER yet again with kidney pain, worse than before. Awhile later I had an ultrasound and my kidneys are working fine. The ultrasound lady just said my body had been through a lot. The pain is mostly gone, just get a little achy. Work is fine, my coworkers seem to understand and my supervisor likes me a lot. I got doctors notes for the days I missed. I'm able to do all my normal stuff, so praise God for healing! Drink your fluids peeps!
