waiting for pain

I went to the ER today because I've been having mild pain on my left side of my abdomen and back. After a Cat- Scan, they found they I have two kidney stones just trying to come out. Wonderful news! ;) We were happy that it wasn't anything else that could be more serious. So, now I'm just waiting for the pain to intensify and pass these dreadful stones. My wrists and hands are really hurting me right now because they had to poke me four times before they were done putting an IV in and taking my blood! My veins were not cooperating. The first guy who poked me was new at taking blood and really nervous. He had the needle in his hand and he was just shaking. I was thinking, "Are you going to stop shaking when you poke me?" Well, he didn't! So, here he is holding my hand shaking and holding the needle shaking and trying to get blood! Can you say painful! He tried two times and couldn't get blood, even sticking the needle further in didn't help. :) The poor guy! I was good to him, though. :) They brought the expert guy in to finish the job, but even he had to poke me twice! He was getting blood from one vein and it just stopped giving! So, then he had to poke me again to get more blood! What a day!
