Caltrops - Rants





	[quote name="pinback"]They put me under for a biopsy which didn't go as planned, but they were able to do two things: 1. Get some evidence that it's <i>renal cell carcinoma</i>, which I guess just kills your kidney until they yank it out, and probably not <i>transitional cell carcinoma</i> which kills all rest of the things in your body, and thus, you. So that's tentatively, relatively good news, and we now have a date for removing the offending organ, December 12. 2. Put in a "ureteral stent", the purpose of which is to make peeing an incredibly bloody, painful experience, I am guessing to keep your mind off of your impending organ removal.[/quote]
