Bit early for Christmas Selfies (I told someone to take the pic, couldn't manage on my own), but I hope everyone else has a more comfortable holiday than mine is starting out to be!
No diagnoses yet, but the most godawful pain of my life started at 645am.
By 8 I was in the ER and begging out loud for someone to help me.
Some pain meds helped a little, then the pain came back, I got nauseous, vomited like something out of the Santa Clarita Diet, and felt totally fine.
Waiting on my CT results...
Wish me luck, imgur. Here's hoping I don't need my appendix or gallbladder out!
Edit: scan is back! Kidney stone. Really, REALLY pissed off kidney stone. Like omg guys.
But I'm gonna be okay!! :D
And honestly, I've had a kidney stone before and it was half this bad. This sucked.

The clap for sure...

You have ghosts in your blood. Do cocaine about it.
PaliQ
Fun fact, due to a never ending nosebleed as a kid, I had a cocaine solution shoved up my nose at the age of 11.

We're trying to make you smile, but we also hope you feel better soon.

Take care @OP. I hope you get well soon.
PaliQ
Thank you! It's strange that I feel so much better so fast. Never been in that kind of pain before!

Kidney stones is my go to wish for people I really hate very much. Very little is worse, and most of that lasts shorter.
Justarandomgiffairy
I just wish upon them surprise paper cuts and nothing but red lights when they're late. But yours works too, I guess.

I had a giant ass kidney stone once. It really is an unimaginable pain. I feel for you. Hope it passes quick
PaliQ
Mine was apparently tiny. But I am also tiny. So. -shrug- shit hurts, tho.
PervyMasterRoshi
It really does, I don't know how much size affects it, but shit hurts

Best of luck, i hope they don't need to operate.
PaliQ
No operation! It was a kidney stone and a bladder infection teaming up to be total bitches.
CatsAreOurGods
probably aliens http://images.shirts.com/products/28924/14-14-63187/alien-chestburster-t-shirt2.jpg
CrazyZonie
Yeah, @Op's definitely got aliens. Call Ridley for this.

My husband got kidney stones when I was 6 months pregnant, at least he had a sense of my pain when I went into labor...fun times
WhompingWillough
Look at you, chillin with Plankton's wife just before Christmas. Hope you've got answers soon and feel better quickly.

PaliQ
Yup. It sucked. Way worse than my last one. Thought my appendix was trying to explore or something.
sassybeckalicious
I thought it was going to be gall bladder - same alien bursting through pains I think. That was a rough day. feel better soon!

oh te famous mens dick bullets

My first thought was appendix. Good luck!

CrazyZonie
@Op, Appendix and Gall Bladders are on the lower end of fucked up things. You should be grateful if it's just that. BTW, get well.
PaliQ
It was a kidney stone. A really. Really. Really pissed off kidney stone. @_@
CrazyZonie
So, how would you rate the pain on this scale: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NHJjEFk32c
PaliQ
My signal is crap so I can't watch it, but I would have gladly endured someone clocking me on the head to knock me out.
CrazyZonie
When you get somewhere where your signal isn't crap, please watch it and report back to how angry those stones were.
CrazyZonie
Well, it's not cancer, so you got that going for you. ;)
Ilikestyx
could be gallbladder, but I'm not doctor
PaliQ
That's what the insurance lady said! And my mom had hers out, so it's possible. I have had a lot of digestive issues.
Ilikestyx
Well whatever it is, hope you feel better soon!
PaliQ
Kidney stone. Mean one. And bladder infection. Bleeehhhh. 10x worse than my last stone!!
Ilikestyx
aw dang. Sorry to hear, hope you've got at least some relief now.
PaliQ
Yup. Feel loads better now! And I have a scrip for toradol, and the night off from work.
TheyDontKnowAndYouCantTellEm
Now you will learn to drink water before AND after coffee, vigorous exercise, sunbathing, ingesting protein drinks, sodas, etc.
TheyDontKnowAndYouCantTellEm
ps I've had like 11 of 'em. I can feel 'em coming now and dissolve 'em by drinking 4-6 liters of water. Careful about electrolyte balance
PaliQ
I don't drink coffee, or do much exercise, and cut soda out of my diet 2 years ago. I think it was a recent uptick in salty food.
TheyDontKnowAndYouCantTellEm
If you filter your pee and actually retrieve a stone the lab can tell you its composition. Never saw any of mine.
WhompingWillough
P.S. Your vitals are making me uneasy. Please report back.
PaliQ
I live! This was just after the toradol managed to take effect, so my heart rate finally chilled tf out.
WhompingWillough
So happy to know you're doing well, kidney stones are the fucking devil. Ex had his threaded and was instructed to YANK it out. No joke

Here's hoping that's all you need out, @OP! I'll point my magnet's north side towards you to send you some positive magnetic fields!
CrazyZonie
Thoughts and prayers! Thoughts and prayers!
PlatypusPlatypus
I find magnetic fields are much more tangible...
PaliQ
Same here, tbh. I actually ordered magnetic nailpolish recently. I am excite. Maybe it will be delivered when I get home. @_@
PlatypusPlatypus
Interesting... what does it do? Can you pick up small metal objects with your fingers now?
PaliQ
Nah, the polish has metal particles that react to a magnet. Holding one over it makes the bits follow the magnetic field, making patterns.
PaliQ
Simply Nailogical on YouTube recently did a tutorial with it. Stuff is amazing.
