Thank God for Rhett!!!! He called me at 6:18 this morning. I put my cell phone by my ear and this time I heard it when it rang 
He woke me up and asked when I was going to the hospital. I jumped out of bed, took a shower and got dressed. He called me again to make sure I was on my way. I didn’t even ask him to do that for me. If he hadn’t, I’d probably still be asleep.
My pesky neighbor is obviously a late night person. He was out fixing his car from 1 to 3 AM. His apartment door is near the head of my bed and he slammed that door MANY times during those hours as he went from apartment to car and back. If I were at a campground, I’d turn him in to the campground host for making noise during quiet time!
So…I overslept, but thanks to Rhett, I got to the imaging center in time. I had to drink 16 oz an hour before the test, so I made lemonade and chugged it. By the time she greased up the sonogram wand, my bladder was bursting. She doesn’t think she saw a kidney stone, but the doc will be reading the results ASAP. She DID see gallstones. Sigh….
I had a gallbladder infection a year or so ago and now it’s full of stones ;-(
The pain from my kidney stone has moved down low, so either I have passed it, it’s hidden or something else is wrong. I still have the fever and goosebumps and cold and hot sweats.
As usual, Zeke was a big hit this morning. A skinny old Chinese lady fell in love with Zeke and he with her. When we got up to go to the examination room, he transfered that love to the technician. I put Zeke’s leash strap on a chair leg, but when I was on the table moaning, he brought the chair with him. We both cracked up when he stood on the stool to see what she was doing. Zeke does not like to see me in pain. I stuck my arm over the bed and petted Zeke and he was content to let her poke and prod me.
Zeke is always well mannered when I am being examined, but I should have left him loose like I always do. Like clockwork, he prefers to lie down on the floor by my side. Nothing was going to stop him from watching over me
