Hey Cindy you gotta get better..we need to meet and we only live a few minutes away from each other!! My daughter saw Dr. Kessler on Monday, he is sure she passed a kidney stone last week..she was taken to the ER but when she asked for him found out he was on vacation..well she said "No body touches me but DR. Kessler" ..she cried when she found out he was out of the country..he told her he woulda called her if he had known she was in the ER..yea right..like he would call while out of the country! he is such a sweetie..he is an awesome doc and person..as I said he is very WLS friendly.. hope you feel better soon.. Brenda

Cindy, Leviquin is the other medicine that I was put on. Just drink plenty of water and lay off the coffee until this whole thing clears up. I drink coffee too but when I get these I stop right away. Becareful to not be in the sun while taking that you will burn really bad. I tan really easy and get dark but while in Fla. one year while taking Leviquin I blistered big time and I was in a lot of pain. I hope that you can get in to see Brenda's DR. so you can be at the conference. We just may have to come and drag you there with care (lol). Hope you get to feeling better real soon, Vicki

Thank you Vicki for the info. I can't seem to be able to drink very much and that doesn't help. I am going to try again tomorrow but I think I am way low on fluids. My back hurts so badly right where my kidneys are. Maybe I will go to the ER now. Thanks Vicki,Love Cindy

Cindy, When I was in the process of passing my kidney stone the Dr told me of an over the counter medication which relieved a lot of pain and spasms down yonder. It was in the pain reliever aisle and for the life of me I cant remember the name of it right now. Ask the pharmacist. The make a prescription form of it as well, but the OTC is just a few mgs less and worked great. I get those darned UTI's as well and they hurt like the dickens. But girly we have to get you well so we can all meet you. I hope you know how Loved you are by all of us here on the board. You are an inspriration and for me a motherly figure that I can depend on for good advice and friendship. I will pout all weekend if you cant make it.. Love ya Laura
