Excruciating pain, 4 hours in the ER, 2 doses of Morphine, 1 dose of Zofran, 2 Liters of IV fluid, 2 urine tests, 4 blood tests, 1 abdominal/pelvic ultrasound, 2 CT scans - 1 with contrast and 1 without contrast, and a $6000 bill = one tiny kidney stone. Instead of attending the Draper Temple dedication today, Rob and I spent 4 fabulous hours in the Emergency Room with what I was determined was appendicitis but ended up being a 2-3 mm kidney stone. How can something so little hurt SO BAD? We have decided to name it since it cost more than both of our kids' births combined. It will be known as Stoney.
