MY DH just left in an ambulance

[jen276here]

Just got home!
They did a cat scan and he has a 3mm kidney stone. He has passed the worst part which is the part that bends and come around from the kidney to the side. The severe puking and sweating was caused from the pain according to the doctor. The stone is now in his bladder and he is a LOT better. So now he has to pee it out but the doctor said not to worry as it won't be as painful as what he already went through. PHEW.........I'm so glad it was nothing major. I was so worried cuz his grandpa died of a heart attack, and his dad had a heart attack a few years ago and I worry about his heart. Of course I'm sure I will have a heart attack when I see the bill for this one!

THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE FOR THE PRAYERS!

Oh, thank goodness! I mean kidney stones are bad enough, but still, what it could have been! I hope he is feeling better and I hope you are too!! Sorry about the bills that will be coming though. Its a sham what they charge for these procedures!! Either way - good luck to both of you for a quick recovery (from the stones and the bills!)

I'm glad it was nothing major- continued prayers for no more scares and no more kidney stones!

Glad to hear everything is okay.

Let's find the silver lining somewhere so the bill doesn't seem too bad. We can be thankful that it wasn't anything too serious that required an extended stay at the hospital. Your husband is very lucky!

When you get the bill, call the hospital right away and ask them to put you on a monthly payment plan. They will, I've done it several times in my life. Glad to hear your hubby is doing good, emergencies like that are always scary, I'm just happy for you both that it wasn't a life threatening situation. Hope he is resting comfotably now. Take care and good luck!

I'm so glad to hear that your DH is doing better! What a blessing.

Don't worry about the hospital bill now...when it comes call and see if you qualify for the "charity pool" they have for unemployed, low income or other situations!

Hugs and more prayers that everything starts looking up!

I'm am so happy to hear that he is doing better now. I will continue to keep him and you and your family in my prayers.

Oh Gosh I am soooooooo happy to hear it wasnt something worse! I know how scared you had to have been considering his family history.. my mom was fortunate.. thanks for asking. She had her attack in 14 yrs ago and shes now 81 and still going strong.

Best wishes to you and yours..

Tara,

I just saw this... I'm so happy to hear he's alright... :)

Glad to hear that he is okay - I thought it was probably kidney stones by the description - the same thing happened to our secretary last Friday. Be sure to ask if the hospital has "charity" money - as often they do for individuals who are uninsured, but who intend to pay at least part of their bill.
