Pee Shingle

I was off work yesterday (hence the long overdue updates to my blog – boredom waiting the next round of cramps). I occasionally pass kidney stones, small calcified crystalline shards of solidified urea that collect in the kidneys and eventually (hopefully) make their way down the minute tubes that connect the kidneys to the bladder and then are washed out when the unlucky person pees.
It is that passage from the kidney to the bladder that causes the intense back ache and other related symptoms that’s the sod.
Hey at least they are coming out and not growing and causing damage.

I guess I should pee thankful for small mercies :-)
