Day 3

Well I am back! Kidney stones got the better of me! I sure have learned a lot with this being my 3rd time!
First off pain is a real kick in the butt! What do we do when it is so bad that we have no choice??
Second This really S&%ks! Even after only being on them for 1 month the with drawls are still there! Not nearly as bad as the first time but still there! I hate having to go threw this again, but I want to be whole again. I think back to wear I should/would be if I never fell off my horse and it hurts! 2 years!
Wow that would be amazing but here I am starting over and looking forward to a better life!
I think for me the hardest part is thinking wear I would of been, I really need to stop this and just move forward!
The mind is both a wonderful and horrible thing!
So its a new day and a new me so here I go again......
Please do not tell me I need to go to meetings, etc. I failed and I know what I need to do but right now I just need someone who understands what I am going threw. I will do what I need to do and I thank all of you for always being in my corner!

Medical issues are bound to happen to us at some point so it is very important to have a plan in place.  The coulda shoulda woulda's dont matter now.  What does matter is you stopped and are doing something about it.  That is progress!!  I hope you are feeling better, kidney stone wise.  The wd's will be what they are, hopefully not too bad.  One foot in front of the other.  You will get thru this~

Most of us have been right where your at sweetie, don't beat yourself up. If you needed them for pain, then so be it, your human. Pain prolongs the healing process. Hopefully the wds will be mild and only last a few days. Just buckle up and get ready for the ride. You'll be fine, just stay strong and keep moving forward. Good luck to you!!

BTW~ Good to hear from ya, not under these circumstances, but nonetheless ...Take care!

At the end abused.. but when I saw what I was doing I stopped taking them. I am so glad I now know the signs and know when I am heading down that road.
