About a year ago I was in a quad crash, luckily I wasn't hurt but I did bruise my kidney and eversince then it seem's as if I've had nothing but problems. A month after the crash I started to get this pain in my side, it hurt to urinate and I found myself urinating freaquently, I shrugged it off and didn't think anything of it. It started to get worse as each day went by until one night I went into work, an hour into my shift the pain was so bad I went to go lay down...considering I did not want to leave work as my duties as a caregiver at a senior home seemed more important than my own health at the time... Well, I got up to use the bathroom, I started screaming in pain as if someone had stabbed me in my side, I dropped to the floor, my co-worker called the paramedics and I was rushed to the hospital. Doctors didn't tell me much except that I had a kidney stone and a Kidney infection..gave me meds and sent me on my way. 3 months later another problem...This time I knew something was wrong but of course didn't think anything of it until the morning I woke up, I felt fine until I went to urinate, I saw blood and KNEW that there was no way I was having my period, that's when the pain came on. My friend rushed me to the hospital... A UTI(Urinary Tract Infection) they said. They told me I was *lucky* I didn't really understand what they meant by that. 4 months go by... no problems. Jalapeno chips became the death of me, I wake up crying and hitting the wall in agony I wait it out for 2 hours...the pain is still there. Again, I am rushed to the hospital TG for painkillers. They did test's and told me they couldn't find much wrong, but they did tell me it's a possibility it could be gallstones that they couldn't detect... The great part is that that Kidney stone that I was suppose to pass nearly a year ago is still in my kidney and only got bigger... They told me that it's too big to pass...Then I understood why I was still having mild pain in my side. What am I to do... I'm 21 years old and had to quit college because I owe nearly $17,000 in back hospital bills, and I don't have insurance and I keep having problem's that Doctors haven't specified with me. What could be causing these problems? |
