I agree with all of your suggestions, I am working on it as well as my bump knee, rehabbing it also my shoulder from surgery. I am really really trying to drink a lot more water and since I am home most of the time especially with the virus, I can pee and possibly pass the stones. Time will tell. No one is saying to me lets do something about it at this time. The medical profession has really gone down the tubes in my opinion. IT has become a business, which is not so good for people who have complex issues. They only allow you so much time and must go on to the next patient, it is a bummer. I know my body is screwed up from the tumor and I know my mental health is screw up from an alcoholic- abusive 32 year old marriage. My Father was an alcoholic and pushed me into the marriage. I still have low self esteem at times. So this being said, I have today to live and do what I can to be happy. Time will tell, I must have made some good decisions for I am still alive and no stoke which runs in my family. The urology people are waiting, I have a friend whose husband is retired in urology so maybe I will ask him for recommendation to see someone else. so far just seeing the PA in urology. As I said it is a business and they want you to come back as much as possible to pay more money. I had a good advisor when I went on Medicare and pay $210 per month for my supplement. No copay's and no deductible. I am grandfathered in, they no longer offer the plan. Before Medicare all my money for for my premiums-$20,000 per year. it was awful for the same plan.
