Michael -- My prayers are with you. I went through some of the same thing in January. I had four stones too big to pass, too big to zap, and they had to dig them out. They put in a stent to keep the one blocking the ureter from doing that, then took me of coumadin for a month before they went in and dug them all out. I am still recovering from that surgery (I already had knee replacement surgery and had my heart zapped back into rhythmn which didn't hold so now I'm on a beta blocker that doesn't quite do the job). But I am recovering and thank God that I live in Rochester, Minnesota, USA and the Mayo Clinic is my primary care and Medicare does actually work pretty well. The pain was horrendous but they were pretty good about controlling it once they had a diagnosis. I wish I could ship you here! Jenni Hulsizer ----- Original Message ----- From: The Haggard ???
