PAIN

I had a small bout with kidney stones again last night. At somewhere between 1:30 and 2AM I awoke with a murmuring pain in my left side. As it quickly turned to excruciating agony, I got up and got to the emergency room. They gave me a shot and told me to use suppositories for the pain in the next few days. Ugh!

The pain was less horrible than the first time I had kidney stones, so I'm hoping this one will pass on its own. If not I can look forward to pain, pain and more pain, a few days in a hospital and a rotten end to my summer holiday. On the other hand, a world filled with pain is good preparation for the coming school year...
