Oh, yeah, I had all of that taken care of some month back. I feared sometime having to go really bad and not being able to. I think I have that issue taken care of.

It happens a lot. Prostate sometimes has to do with it. I have had kidney stones that was a nightmare. I can relate if you ever had them you cannot urinate. It is a horrible feeling Milton I hope you never have that issue. I had a foley catheter for a week inside of me.

The only time I had a kidney stone, I passed it after drinking a six pack of beer. It hurt like heck, but I didn't care. And, it was instant relief. And, BTW, I am not a beer drinker, don't like the taste of the stuff, but after the first couple of bottles, it wasn't bad. I was suffering too much to care.

Hmmm...Not really, Kim. Just had to get it fixed. Seems a common problem for lots of older men.
