Help me with my life altering decision!

[Professur]

Dude! Men whine and cry over the most minor pain. Women are much more suited to this kind of thing.

Screw you. I passed a kidney stone.

 

[Uki Chick]

Screw you. I passed a kidney stone.

So did I, at the age of 9 no less.

 

[AlphaTroll]

Screw you. I passed a kidney stone.

And nodded and smiled as you both went your seperate ways I am sure.

 

[tonksy]

Screw you. I passed a kidney stone.

Yeah...but you're a Scotsman.

 

[Slim Pickens]

Yeah...but you're a Scotsman.

A Scotsman clad in kilt left the bar one evening fair...

 

[Professur]

And nodded and smiled as you both went your seperate ways I am sure.

Actually, I made a concerted effort to knock myself sensless by beating my head in before the Demerol kicked in.

You know he has never heard that song? I posted the lyrics for him to read once.

Which head?

 

[Professur]

You know he has never heard that song? I posted the lyrics for him to read once.

Still haven't.

AT, *sigh*

 

[Leslie]

Screw you. I passed a kidney stone.

I've heard a couple women who have done both say that that is worse than childbirth.

 

[Uki Chick]

I've heard a couple women who have done both say that that is worse than childbirth.

I haven't gone through childbirth, but I can say that a kidney stone is a bitch.

 

[Leslie]

From what I hear, that was worse.

 

[tonksy]

I've heard a couple women who have done both say that that is worse than childbirth.

I think it might be a mental thing. You spend 9 months preparing and educating yourself about childbirth. A kidney stone kinda leaps up at you and blindsides you. You don't expect it to be that bad so you aren't prepared...just a theory.

Yeah. Happily reading a book at home to writhing in agony inside of 2 hours.

 

[Leslie]

I'm back to the oh, it wasn't so bad stage. Dunno how we manage to forget it, but we do.

 

[Leslie]

Yeah. Happily reading a book at home to writhing in agony inside of 2 hours.

My first was 5 hours start to finish. So I did that too.

 

[AlphaTroll]

I think your body forgets the pain so that we don't give up on the whole idea.

 

[tonksy]

My first was 5 hours start to finish. So I did that too.

My first baby was horrible, my last 2 came flying out. With Malory I went from 5 centimeters to delivery in 20 minutes. They checked me the first time as Alex Trebeck was reading the first categories and I was done in time for final jeopardy - I remember answering the question and the doctor was like "what?" and I said "final jeopardy" and nodded towards the TV. He gave me a strange look. My ex mother-in-law missed it because she went for a sandwich.

 

[catocom]

yep, when you have some kind of pain day after day, eventually your
threshold goes up for that pain, and some over all.
The kind of pain I have every day,....if it was a normal day, and it hit me,
I'd probably be screaming.
The thing with kidney stone is, it's not just the pain, it poisons your system
to a certain extent, compounding the problem, and making you sick....

 

[Leslie]

me too. I wanted to cut my arm off awhile ago, now it's just normal.
