The Cocktail of Goodness

So last night I gave up in my attempts to pass a God Damn kidney stone for over a week. I gave into the incessant pain and went to the emergency room. After I was checked in and moved to a room a nurse came in and delivered what can only be called the most magnificent blend of drugs know to man. The warm up was a mild pain reliever known as Tordol, kind of like hard core Ibuprofen. That was followed up by phinegrin, which is used for nausea but when mixed with other pain relievers it acts as a pain reliever too. All of that was chased by Morphine, I don't believe that any explanation is needed for this one. Now keep in mind that I tried everything I could not to have to go to the emergency room, so I took 3 vicoden 5-750 mg pills before I headed to the hospital. I actually enjoyed the MNF game and slept well for the first time in over a week and I owe it all to modern medicine. Once I regain more consciousness I will post a great story about a friend of mine in OK City.

And if you can't read the writing on the van it says "There is still time to change the road you are on" surrounded by flames. I saw this and felt as though it were calling to me for some reason.

OMG dood,

that is a truly awful thing to go through. The toughest dood I know, skydiver, harley rider, taught me how to shoot.

Only time I've ever seen him crawling and bawling was when that stone was moving from his kidneys

Nate said...

And I just now I saw the episode of Deadwood where Al passes the stone.

My hat is off to you, hoople headed cock suckah

I have now had about 14 or so and no matter what pain you could imagine it is probably far worse. I am by my own admission a huge vaj so when I say that something hurts it is probably debatable, but I have had nurses tell me that they have had both babies and Kidney Stones and they would choose the babies any day. Our mutual friends Dagromm and CyberD were there for my first one and I was confused and in pain for that one, there is nothing like not noing why you are in this unexplainable pain and not knowing why. I took a hundred ibuprofen for the pain that night and it didn't help : ) Dagromm took me to the hospital and I guess helped me get checked in I don't remember a whole lot after that point. Though I do remember CyberD deserting me, bastard!

Q said...

After reading that last post keep in ming I am on meds with mind altering effects.

Cyber D said...

Dude, I had a double date with my wife and another couple... the girl was an old college friend that my wife used to play volleyball with (SD for Gyuss if he knows who I'm talking about). I have to keep my priorities in order. AND I might add that you didn't start going MAD with pain until after I left. Nobody knew what was about to unfold. And besides, would it really have changed anything if we had known. No, I would have still abandonded you. That's what makes our friendship so great!

Q said...

I know CyberD, going on a nice enjoyable double date is much more enjoyable than staying with a friend who is in serious pain and just needs a little help to get to the hospital.

Nate said...

Cyber,
SD is the freckle faced brunette cutie, right? Name rhymes with HAY ?I had such a crush on her back in college.

Cyber D said...

Spot on, Gyuss!

And did you know she is getting a divorce now?

Q, What I'm trying to say is that when I left the little pain you had could have been anything. It could have been your crabs acting up, it could have been that last dose of steroids you shot directly into your ball-sack. It wasn't really bad yet. It was only after I left that you realized you were going to die. I think time and "story-telling" turned this little event into my abandoning you.

Nate said...

Note to Q:

Hottie is getting a divorce. Talk to Cyber about the hookup.

Dagromm said...

As I recall the only thing Cyber offered Q when he begged for help to get medical attention was, "a kick in the balls" and then he laughed gave us the finger and said, "So long Fuck Jobs. I've got plans for a cluster tonight. CyberD out!!!"

Q said...

I am glad we remember the same thing Dagromm. What a horrible friend you are CyberD. (begins sobbing)

Cyber D said...

Dags has it all wrong. We all know who is the best at kicks to the crotch!
