Glad you're getting better. I'm sure you'll be psyched to put this in the rear view mirror. Cheers, to a full recovery!!

Ouch. I've heard that is one of the most painful things there is.

Worst pain I have been in is thoroughly wrecking a knee. Not sure how they compare.

Wow , that's a mouthful! Glad to see you spent the money to get the extracorporial brand vs the plain old corporial brand.

Worse pain I ever had was with back injuries. Not too bad just laying there but when the spasms hit its out of this world. I've had 11 knee surguries , 1 hip replacemnt and the pain from them is no where near that experienced when you get spasms from say a wacked sacroilliac joint or pinched disc IMO. Never had stones (cross my fingers) so I cannot comment on that.

I did go through child birth once and it was murder . Oh wait, I'm male, ....guess that was just a big dump while constipated...
