    When I had a kidney stone I just wanted help ASAP, I didn't care if it was from male, female, black, white, or green.

    If you feel well enough to wait to get in with a female doc, then more power to you. Just don't let it drag out so long that you get kidney damage.

    Well I got on the internet and starting research in urogynechology, there were a few. I went to the websites to investigate. One website of an office not to far away showed slim attrative model type women of all ages and ethnicities. It advertised urinary incontinense and prolapse, fibriod treatment, pelvic surgery and robotic surgery. I called they could take me, in two weeks.

    So back to the internet of my medical insurance. I found someone who saw me and I do have a stone. I am getting a CT Scan to confirm size and location that will then determine treatment.

    I'm more uncomfortable now. And I drink so much water now that I pee all the time. Maybe I'll just pee it out, I hope, I hope, I hope.

    My first thought was dermoid ovarian cyst (because I had them, and every doctor thought it was kidney stones).

    Has that possibility been entertained?

    In any case, whatever it is, the CT scan will confirm it for sure.

    Thinking of you. Both are very painful!
