Hard Act to Follow
Worst. Possible. Luck.
Or, more things I could live without.
If you've read the previous couple of posts you know that I recently had an insignificant organ removed after it decided to grow and become a pest.
Earlier this week (either Monday or Tuesday) while sitting at my desk at work I began experiencing a very sharp and annoying pain in my lower left back. My immediate thought was "Great, now what?" and that was shortly followed up by "@#^! this hurts!"
This was then followed up by a quick trip to the restroom to check for any external signs of something wrong. Finding nothing and with the pain starting to subside I figured that it might just be a random muscle spasm. I've had problems with my joints and back for years so I wasn't too concerned after just one short burst of pain that lasted less than 15 minutes.
Of course, I wouldn't be posting this if it was really that simple.
Fast forward to 4:30AM Wednesday morning. I'm jolted awake by that same pain. It lasts about 15 minutes and goes away. After the last experience I had with random pain which resulted in the removal of an organ I made a mental note to call the doc and get his opinion.
I make an appointment for Friday afternoon. Aside from what appears to be severe constipation on Friday everything seems normal. In hindsight, I probably had at least one if not two kidney stones that I passed between Wednesday and Friday.
The doc has me scheduled for an abdominal CT on Monday to check for anymore. So, anyone care to bet on what's next?
