Default Welcome Back!

Welcome back, Ronette - it's good to hear from you again! I'm so sorry you're having these terrible pains. I'm not a doctor (nor do I play one on T.V.), so I don't have any words of wisdom, but I have faith in the good sense and experience of Duckie and the other posters who have responded. In your position, I would take seriously the fact that they are concerned about a possible kidney infection or stones and the URGENT need to see a doctor. I would follow their suggestions and seek help immediately, even if it means a trip to the ER!

On a lighter note (literallly), I think your weight loss is fantastic and am very proud of you! Thirty pounds lost in about two months would equal 180 pounds lost in a year - that's an excellent rate and very inspiring to us pre-ops!

Best wishes and many blessings, kiddo!
