    Update: I need a second surgery! Urologist says that there is still a stone in the left kidney. I could leave it and wait and see, but if I want to continue to fly and train, it needs to come out or FAA could ding me at next physical. I have a 6 day reprieve before I have to go thru that...

  14. Kidney Stones

    I’m afraid to take the flomax. I think its in the badder now. Calm before the storm; guess I just need to down a bunch of liquid, take the flomax and give it whirl. If y’all hear a loud scream, that’ll be coming from Woodstock.
