So, if you've been following me for a while, you might remember that about 4 months ago I shared the disastrous story of my kidneys stones. Yes, stones, as plural! At that time I had 8 stones, and needed an emergency surgery because one was obstructing my ureter, and it was huuuuge (for a kidney stone). It was a success! I wasn't with a +1cm stone blocking my ureter, but still got 7 inside me. So, in the beginning of October (I only got an appointment by that time), I had a procedure called "lithotripsy," where I had the remain stones broken by this noisy machine, hoping they would pass normally with my urine.

However, on October 28th, the excruciating pain returned. My wife and I went back to the hospital... Lots of tramadol, PACO (paracetamol with codeine), ketoprofen, among others... They're still here, chillin', inside my kidneys! They're broken alright, but they're not in a position to be expelled, and my case isn't surgical (yet) because none of them are obstructing anything, and this time my kidneys aren't suffering (yet, again). So I'm forced to live with this unbearable pain, taking a bunch of medication, until they decide to just go away. Or at least until my case becomes surgical.

Anyway, I wanted to let you all know... I didn't post the exams like I did the last time I did the journal, but I have absolutely no problem showing them via Discord/Telegram/X for anyone who wants to see!

I just hope to get rid of them soon...

Thank you for your understanding <3
