so much for pg-13 on this thread!!!

I'm back posting. Had a business trip to Phoenix for a long weekend. Returned to Houston to a local stomach bug. I've had worse, but nothing with body aches like this. The back pain was like what I imagine kidney stones to be like. Advil cut the pain, but as it wears off I have trouble doing anything. My stomach seems back to normal, but the back and headaches are annoying. I have work to do at the office. No one wants me there, especially our pregnant paralegal. The staff has threatened to Lysol me upon my return.

*Snortle*

In all seriousness, It sounds like you C.Diff. bacteria in your intestines got out of balance.

If your back hurt with a dull pain that was ever-present and annoying as hell - the kind you try to rub, but you can't reach the right spot to rub because it's in the middle of your body, then it was like kidney stones. It was, in sort, total hell for a day or so. My advice is what the doctor told me --Drink GALLONS of water. The more you can dilate your 'tubing,' the less you feel the jagged gravel in your body.

So my diagnoses are virus, C.Diff, or kidney stones. The first and third are more easily dealt with. I'll eat more yogurt. Back to work today for my monthly staff meeting.

I had c. diff last April and May

Sorry to hear that.

My back pain has lessened with more water and less coffee. I'm not on advil today.

Glad it was less. Hope improvement continues. In the event that you do have kidney stones, there's basically not a damn thing you can do except treat the pain and suffer until you pass them. Drinking unholy amounts of water, and nothing but water will speed the process along. When I had 'em, I don't think I bothered with paid meds, I just suffered for a couple of days while I tried to drain the Pacific Ocean into my drinking cup.

 

[Scott DeWar]

yeah. it does indeed sound like stones. You may have to cut back on rich foods so as to have SOME coffee.
