Something very similar happened to me yesterday...

I was with my friend.. an unstable one, to say the least. I go in to Popeye's to get some food. Come back... has a needle in her arm and is unresponsive. After freaking out for a minute and not successfully waking her up. I decide to drive to the hospital. I figured I could get their faster than the cops could get to me... so I turned on my emergency blinkers and speed through about 20 red lights on a major road in Baltimore County... It was one of the scariest things I've ever been through..

Damn I never hope I get kidney stones. Ugh. Isn't there a procedure where they use lasers to break up the stone? You still gotta pass it though :/

Well, glad you're ok. :doctor:

yes, but thats a last resort...and to get to the stone they go threw your pee hole :o

i had a kidney stone a few months back. i learned that the pain occurs while the stone travels thru the narrow tube between your kidney and your bladder, and not what I originally thought (passing from your bladder to the outside world)

painful thing without a doubt

      It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.

      Microsoft, totally not confusing /s 25H2 - Current for non-Arm based Windows 26H1 - Current for Arm based Windows 26H2 - Only for non Arm Windows
    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build

      After I installed those, my older but capable Win 11 laptop (16GB RAM) reported it as 26H2 26300.8697. Then I installed it on my big laptop (128GB RAM! Hehe sorry), it reported it as 25H2 26220.8690. Ugh. Do I have to switch Insiders channels from Release to Beta?
