True,
I thought it was a Kidney Stone, they couldn't find the stone, Urgent Care "Kidney infection" take antibiotics.
Wrong diagnosis.
My Doctor
Two Cat Scans later, 3 spots on both lungs, to the ER pronto, 3 days in Hospital, Blood work, EKGs, testing every 4 hours, Ultra sound of legs, heart, a visit to the Director of Temple Lung rated #1 in the Country. After supposed Kidney infection pain for 8 days I kept saying I feel great. Wrong! Nothing to do with Kidneys,
Blood Clots both lungs, right leg.
Blood Thinner
DNA blood test.
Medicine that cost $600 for 30 days.
If it hadn't been for the pain where I thought it was Kidney Stones and not go to the Doctor...my days with you guys would have ended without fireworks. My next gardening project would be pushing up Daisies.
but
I'm back.
p.s. I like what you've done to the place!!!

Glad that was caught in time. I hope there are no lasting effects.

Re: I almost died
Happy July 5th buddy!
Glad to read it was caught in time.
Kidney stones... the worst pain. Not being able to breath, that's a trip onto itself. Deep meditation got me to the hospital alive, so I feel ya.
Like I said bud... Happy ... Today!

Re: I almost died
The proper diagnosis blood clots bottom of both lungs and my right leg. The pain I felt brought me to the Doctor thinking I had a kidney stone. Thankfully it was caught in time. It was a ticking time bomb.
They now have me on blood thinners.
So where did I go yesterday...on a charter boat fishing trip with hooks and filet knives flying everywhere!
Thank you all for the kind thoughts. I am not a ghost yet...
I did think about my finale words while in the hospital and it would have been a joke.
Knock knock.
Who's their?
