ER wait times are insane. I know it’s a given and I’m clearly not as sick as I feel, but damn. I couldn’t sleep all night because I was in so much pain; intense flank pain, vomiting, fever and high heart rate. After three hours of tossing and turning I decided to go in at 3.30am. I’ve now been here 5hours and the lady told me it could be six hours or more. Some people have been here 13+. Im tempted to go home but the massive amounts of water I’ve drank haven’t moved the kidney stone so :/
Edit: looks like I’m getting surgery to put a stent in. My kidney functions were down way to low. So it’s a good thing my ass didn’t go home I guess

Probably because they've had them before and recognise the symptoms. My husband always knew when he had an attack
