Ureteral stent was removed today (pictured in last slide). Unless you've had one, I dont think I can describe the pain that comes with it. Some aren't bother by it at all but it has been absolutely miserable for me. It goes all the way from your bladder, up into your kidney and just causes so much irritation. Although I was excited to have it removed, the experience was not a good one. I chose to have it removed in office instead of being put to sleep in the hospital. I am feeling much better now but it hurt, and I think all my emotions got the best of me today. Its been a very long road and I am just tired. I've found myself randomly crying throughout the day simply because I feel overwhelmed. My doctor wants to do a CT scan in about a month to monitor kidney function and we will go from there..I wish it was as simple as "Yes, I'm better now" like people keep asking. But unfortunately all I can hope for is good scans next time, and the time after that. Thank you to my circle for checking in so often the last few days. As always I appreciate everyones support. 💛
