Kidney Stones.
Last year i had my second bout with kidney stones. My Doc. Tried everything to and get it
To move. Nothing worked. He had scheduled me for scope. Never been scoped before. The day before
The scope he scheduled me to have an X-ray before I came in for my appointment. That morning I took my pill to relax me. I was late getting to the office, because of the X-ray. He was waiting for me. Went right back. Nurse told to pull down my shorts and underware. Next thing I knew the scope was up my dick. All along I thought I was going Have a local. So there I was with the scope up my dick watching it on
The monitor. The only dicey part was when he would turn the camera. Other than that, it was not that bad. In the end I had to have it surgically removed, Man what a relief.
I can empathize with you.
I have had kidney stones, almost every 4 years, since I was 21 years old.
I was able to pass most of them. One needed to be literally pulled out of me through my penis.
Was not a fun experience. I was also scoped with a retrograde urethrogram, where they insert a small camera into your penis to check for blockages, possibly from scar tissue.
I have also had lithotripsy, where they use shock waves to shatter the kidney stones into small enough pieces so they can passed. My first lithotripsy had me sitting in a tub of water. Several years later, when I needed another lithotripsy, the Doctors had me hold a water-filled balloon type bag over my kidney while they zapped the stones. I stayed completely dry for that procedure. There was also no need to be put under any anesthesia.
Kidney stones are one of the worst pains a guy can feel. I don't wish them on anybody.
I have had more kidney stones than I could count. I have been scoped more times than I want to remember, with and without anesthesia. I have been hospitalized on IV to try to flush them out. I would not wish kidney stones on anyone except a select few dictators of African and Asian countries.
