Please reassure me that .. UPDATE ON MY DAD !

This is most likely kidney stones:

My brother is taking my father to the hospital right now, said he is doubled over, can't walk and vomiting and has kidney pain.

the problem is he is diabetic and he has had stones in the past and he said that it doesn't feel like that.

Help! I don't want to go meet them yet, b/c I am at work, and my boss is off today and I have a problem with anxiety - just right now I am better off here.

what could this be?

**** UPDATED ****First I want to say thank you all for your support and prayers.

My dad is going to be fine, as most of you said it was Kidney Stones, it is a large one so he has to go through a procedure to break it up, it is not a surgical procedure though so that is good. He is in a lot of pain, but the pain medication is helping alot - he didn't even have to stay at the hospital. So Friday or Monday he will be having the procedure done.

I was making him laugh at the hospital - I said I don't care what kind of pain you are in - this is GOOD NEWS, dad !!

I am also proud of myself, with everyones help, I did control my panic and stayed as calm as can be under the circumstances, I didn't leave work early, but would've if it was an emergency, I didn't feel it was an emergency until I knew the diagnosis, plus my brother was with him, I would never of let him drive himself to the hospital.

Thank you ALL so much! I will keep you all updated on his procedure!

Love,
Karen

Re: Please reassure me that ..

I spoke to my brother, so far theu think it is Kidney Stones, they are still doing test on him.


I think Kidney stones would be a good thing, compared to what else it could;ve been.

Thank you for your prayers!

Love,
Karen
