  1. I have a 2mm kidney stone now that I have had for a few weeks and it still has not passed!! I'm drinking a lot of water and the doctor has me on meds but still has not passed. Ive heard some people say it could take several weeks to months to pass one
  2. Does anyone ever feel like something is stuck in their throat? I have had this feeling before but lately it has come and has not gone away...i do suffer from allergies so idk if that has something to do with it but it always feels like a lump stuck in my throat
  3. Does anyone know what they are checking when they do Blood and urine labs? and I know the CT scan checks for kidney stones which it found one, but what else does a CT scan of the kidneys show them?
  4. Blood work all cane back normal. They did a CT and found a 2mm stone under my right kidney and gave me meds to help pass it and told me if it doesn’t pass to go see a urologist. I’m just relieved the blood and urine tests were clear
  5. Just peed blood again this morning first time it happened since it happened Saturday and it wasn’t even a study stream of pee. It would go and stop. I’m freaking out and thinking of going to the ER
  6. No, it was just that one time Saturday morning. It’s been normal since then
  7. I tested negative for UTI. And idk what all they check for in a urinalysis but she didn’t mention kidney infection. She said her best guess is kidney stone and I guess that’s why I’m uneasy is she said her best guess not for certain.
  8. She gave me some antibiortics and told me my urine was concentrated which means i dont drink enough water (i dont) so she said drink a lot of water and whatever it is should flush out but she thinks its a kidney stone but is not 100% sure without a CT scan. but still my mind goes to worst possible reason.
  9. On saturday i peed a dark brownish/reddish murky pee. i FREAKED OUT. went to urgent care and they took a urine sample and found blood in my urine but the doctor didnt seem concerned saying she thinks most likely its a kidney stone. But I am still freaking out. I have not had visible blood in my urine since that day and I spoke to my buddy who is a doctor who assured me he sees cases like that a lot and they arent as scary as one would think but i am still worried i have kidney issues or the C word :( ive been having on again and off again pain in my lower back, sides, stomach, and rib cage area which is all considered symptoms of a kidney stone but idk
  10. I just spoke to my buddy who is a doctor and he said its nothing to worry about- that things like blood happen with infections and forcing yourself to throw up- he said drink lots of water and warm tea and stop worrying yet here i am still worrying =\
  11. i forced myself twice to throw up- first time it was the dinner i had but then an hour or so later i forced myself again and it was sticky mucus like spit not even throw up with hints of blood in it and that has never happened to me before
  12. So for a week now I have had a sore throat and cough and the first 2-3 days I had a low grade fever with it. My friend who is a doctor told me it sounds like a viral infection and no need for meds as many interact with my anti anxiety meds im on. Well yesterday the pain mostly went away all day but by afternoon the throat pain returned and after i ate dinner, i felt like the food was stuck in my throat and would not go down. I ended up forcing myself to throw it up because the feeling was bothering me and threw up the pasta i ate...well i still felt like there was something stuck in my throat and it hurt when i swallowed so i forced myself to throw up again and this time it was clear mucus with hints of BRIGHT RED BLOOD in the mucus and that just has me freaking out....the pain and the feeling of something stuck is still there today but less so than last night and i have not thrown up again but my mom said its normal to have some blood in ur mucus but then i googled it and you all know the rest....then i called the pharmacy to ask about meds for mucus build up and told them and the pharmacist sounded concerned about the blood and now i am readlly freaking out. somebody help. has this happened to anyone before? it was 95% clear mucus and 5% bright red blood drops and all the things on google say the C word
  13. Had the surgery this morning and is now recovering. thank u all!
  14. My mom is having surgery tomorrow for a foot issue and ive been stressed all week. they will put her to sleep and i just hate surgeries.
  15. https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/wellness/what-should-your-normal-resting-heart-rate-really-be/ar-BBVxRzE?li=BBnba9O read the above article and the part where it says 55%of people with a resting heart rate above 84 for 5 years have a higher chance of heart failure freaked me out. my resting heart rate is usually 95-110 and it already scares me as is

    CBD

    The media is always talking about CBD oil and how it can help. Has anyone here tried it? Has it helped? Does it interact with anxiety medicine?
  17. Yesterday throughout the day I had pain in my upper chest area mainly when i move or press on my chest to the point that it hurt to move. The pain is still there today and i am worried wondering if its muscle related or heart related. i didn't do anything physical to have muscle pain =-\

    Liver

    but my anxious brain says "the nurse at first said come in and see the dr. because there are abnormal results and when she heard me freak out, she put me on hold, and came back and said everything was normal so therefore the doctors office didnt tell me the truth because the nurse isnt good at her job and gave me bad info where in reality something was off"

    Liver

    i had complete blood work done in 2016 (a year after they were up) and the nurse said "the doctor wants u to come in as there were abnormal results" and i freaked out and said "whats going on????" and the nurse put me on hold and came back and said "its nothing serious its just all tests were normal besides my vitamin D levels being low." and i said so everything is normal otherwise and the nurse said yes. and that was the last i went to that doctor or did blood work.

    Liver

    Ive posted about this before but for a few years now ive had on again off again pain around my liver and lately the pain is around more. its now daily and its not severe pain but its there and im scared if i go to the doctor hes gonna tell me my liver is failing and im dying idk what to do. anyone ever experience this? the pain is worse when i sit or lay down as opposed to when i stand. it begins around my right rib cage and goes down to where my liver is. it feels like a needle or uncomfortable type pain. idk its hard to explain. i know my liver enzymes were high a few years back and ever since then ive dealt with this pain.
  25. I think I've posted about this before, but I always get pains in and around my liver (been on and off for 2 years now) and I also get bad heartburn and indigestion where sometimes I feel nasaus and i have heard those are all signs of liver problems. Both my brother and I have higher than usual liver enzymes when we do blood work and while I am not fat, I am overweight and my gut has been growing. I am 5'6 and weigh 175.
