Update Stones and Gastric bypass

Ok so I am in/out of the hospp 5/10 days with surgery scheduled BOTH wed. ( stents) and Fri (ureterscope laser) at HUP.There is definately some literature out there correlating RNY and stones ( calcium) Powder drinks????????????????Tea??????????????? nothing definitive and when I asked Kirkland last summer he played the I don't know card. I have so many sticks in my veins that there seems to be no blood available and I am scared that they have to get 2 more IV's in-Hell, I am just scared to go under two times in 48 hours. I have had enough diladuid to become a gutter junkie and I still am in pain. Why are they dragging this out for weeks. I am losing a ton of money.. I figure this is costing me $5,000 + . Thanks for letting me vent  I am falling apart. geri

*hugs* I'll be thinking of and praying for you over the next few weeks!

Here's to a speedy recovery!

VENT ON Geri!
Here's a link to a recent post from Greg, GD_007, about the dreaded kidney stones. I replied also and included literature and links from my experience back in 2005.
All the best!
