Americans are getting dental implants more than ever — and at costs reaching tens of thousands of dollars. Experts worry some dentists have lost sight of the soul of dentistry: preserving and fixing teeth.
I had a kidney stone. Went to the ER. They told me that department was closed for the day. I told them I wasn’t leaving because the bus ride over was absolute hell. They could either put me in a hospital room until they could treat me, or they could call the experts back into work.
Turns out the person I was talking to was an idiot. The department wasn’t even closed. There was NO way I could have rode that bus again. Every bump was like being stabbed in the testicles by shards of glass that were INSIDE the testicles. Noooooooope. Fuck it. I’ll wait in that hospital room for 4 months before I get back on that bus!
Me being stubborn allowed other nurses to overhear the situation, as I braced myself using the counter top. The other nurses brought me in for this thing that basically shakes your insides with soundwaves. That didn’t work, so they got the specialist in. They were able to squeeze me into their busy schedule. Then they shoved a lazor jp my urethra, and turned my insides into star wars. Pew pew pew. They used the lazor to carve the kidney stone into smaller pieces that were small enough to pass.
And if I’d have just accepted the receptionists word, I’d have had to get on a bus again for an hour of bouncing up and down in agony.
I have SOOOOOO many stories where me being a stubborn asshole turned out to be the right move, but that story is the only one where people shoved things up my penis.
This is why I’m stubborn.

I didn’t realize kidney stones hurt in the balls. That sounds awful.
