    I'm about ready to try and find someone to admit me to inpatient where stuff happens faster.
    Do you think the kidney stones have anything to do with your issues?

    If you feel that bad and are thinking about going to the hospital maybe you should go?

    I second Greg's advice Jack.....having passed some kidney stones myself and ended up in the ER!! It was as bad as childbirth, I kid you not! I think maybe you should go and let them use that machine that breaks them all up....can't remember what it's called. Also sorry this has been dragging on so damn long. Ugh.
