I wonder whether Can is in sunnier climes. Doesn't he normally go away for his birthday?

Thank you all for the kind birthday wishes, and yes I am in sunny Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands where we are enjoying between 26-31’C.
I celebrated my 62nd birthday by waking up yesterday morning Wednesday the 12th at 6:00 with terrible cramp n my lower left abdomen, and after trying everything I had to go to the doctors over here, and after they relieved me of €460 they called an ambulance and sent me to the local hospital where I had a stomach X-ray, blood and urine tests and they eventually decided I had kidney stones. This is the 2nd time I've had kidney stones out here. Any way they had me on an IV drip for 2 hours and eventually sent me home with high strength pain killers and told me to see a specialist when i get home and to drink lots of water.
So I’ve arranged to see a urologist on Monday afternoon, i fly home on Saturday afternoon.
Worst birthday ever.

Kidney stones are awful, you have my sympathies Can. P has also had them twice and says the pain is excruciating. Hope it gets better soon, what a shame it spoilt your birthday.

Hi all, thanks for the well wishes, I have been taking the pain killers so not felt any pain. Been to the urologist today, he seems to think it as not kidney stones and has organised a CT scan for me for tomorrow afternoon, really impressed with his efficiency. He has told me to stop taking the pain killers and see if any pain develops.
