I woke up at 6am. I got breakfast and got online. At 8:30, I started hurting in my chest/stomache area. It was uncomfortable but bearable. This lasted until 10am. Then the pain went from bad to worse. I was doubled over in pain. It was worse than labor!

I was in so much pain, I had my teenager call my friend to come over to watch them.  I headed for the ER.
Once there, I got an EKG, xrays, ultrasound, an IV and hooked up to several other machines. We finally figured out that I had passed a gall stone. But the bad news is that through the ultrasound, they found 2 more big stones. ugh.
They wanted to keep me overnight, but they didn't have any open rooms, so I'm at home. i'm not in any pain. Praise the Lord! But I have to be at the doctor's office first thing in the morning.

The docs suggest surgery to remove the remaining stones. I found an all natural cleanse that I'm going to try first.

That is terrible.  I am praying that you will be healed without having to have surgery.

I've been so wrapped up in my own problems, I didn't read your post til now.   I hope you get through this okay and take care of yourself.   You're in my prayers.
