Relief! Just in time, I was planning to schedule uteroscopy tomorrow! Can’t tell if this is five or 6 mm, but man did it make my life miserable for the past month. Started to feel the telltale flank pain in February while I was traveling overseas. Landed in the ER around March 1. Prescribed flomax, which made me pass out and land on my face a couple of days later resulting in eight stitches.

I have been pounding water doing jump and bump riding my bicycle over as many bumps as I can, doing jumping jacks, you name it. Thanks for all the great advice on this sub.

If you want to be hard headed like everyone else and say " HEY...these chips and foods is definetly worth pissing out shards of razor blades" than thats on you. You have to TREAT YOUR BODY LIKE A TEMPLE and no vaccines whatsoever s...
