Loose Rivets
You poor sod that sounded like a real episode! I'm glad I didn't get it that bad, but the last cholic I suffered was a bad one to say the least.
Yes I've got the stone, it's about 1/2" in diameter and really black and surprisingly heavy (very dense). Apparantly it's made of cholesterine crystals ( good job you can't get them in your blood system
)
The colics I got were a couple of smaller stones that passed out of the bladder into the duodenum, the first Doc got a couple of smaller ones out with an Endoscope but he couldn't crack the big one or pull it out.
Are you sticking to some kind of diet now? I was told to avoid very fatty things which is logical and avoid too much alcohol which is distressing
but sofar I'm fine.
I got an op appointment within about 5 days ( public holiday inbetween!), there is something to be said for the system over here even though it's a little pricey it certainly works!
