Today, I was at my doctor's office. I thought I had a kidney stone. Turns out I'm pregnant and I have a kidney stone. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my doctor confirmed that the extreme pain I've been experiencing is due to a kidney stone. My friend decided this was the time to tell me that passing a kidney stone is the male equivalent of child birth. Hello even more pain. FML
Today, I passed my kidney stone. After thirteen hours of pain free joy, another one appeared. FML
Today, I went in to the doctor's thinking I had a bladder infection. I walked out knowing I'm pregnant. FML
Today, I had the pleasure of having a kidney stones removal procedure where they hammer your kidneys to break up the stones. Afterwards, the doctor called my wife over the intercom to come to back to the waiting room. She freaks out, runs back, and the doctor says, “I just wanted to show this stone. Cool huh?" FML
Today, I passed a kidney stone. This is the third one in two years. I'm only 23. FML
Today, I went to the hospital for wrenching pains in my abdomen. It turns out I have the largest "non removable" kidney stone my doctor has ever seen. It's the size of a fucking walnut. I have to pass the thing. FML
Today, I ended up in the hospital for the fourth time since beginning of January due to kidney stones. FML
Today, I went to the doctor's office for a minor cold, and left with a diagnosis of pregnancy. FML
Today, I was passing a kidney stone. I had to go to the ER but had no one to take me, so I drove myself. They made me wait 3 hours because it was suspicious that someone in "so much pain" could drive. It was the largest stone that doctor had seen in his career. FML
Today, I fell down some stairs and broke my ankle. At the hospital, a nurse asked how far along I was and boom, one ultrasound later, I’m actually pregnant. I had to then convince multiple doctors that I did not in fact throw myself down the stairs trying to cause miscarriage before they’d let me go home. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Kidney stones are a bitch to pass, especially for guys. It hurts so bad, it's like the guy form or giving birth.

my mom had kidney stones too! but the pain went away about two months into her pregnancy. My baby sister is now five months old and my mom still has no pain. :) Same thing happened to my aunt.

Damn, now this is an fml. But can't ultrasound break up some kidney stones? And hey, maybe you can see your baby. Two birds, one stone (but not your kind of stone)!

they can use "shock waves" from a lithotripsy device.

Bad luck on the double slam. Never having a kidney stone, but watching countless others, including my husband, go through the agony, I think I'll skip that. Although, they are preventable. I've had gallstones throughout my last pregnancy. They couldn't do anything and I ended up in ICU for them. Don't know if it's comparable or not to having a kidney stone but I have empathy for you.

Good ******* job. Just be thankful that you aren't a guy with a kidneystone, although I assume birth has it's drawbacks as well.

I gave birth two months ago naturally, does a kidney stone feel like you're being ripped in half? Surely giving birth hurts worse.

Your ****** is meant to stretch to accommodate a mini-you, whereas a urethra isn't meant to stretch to accommodate a kidney stone.

I'm reading this and am really glad that I'm not gonna have kids. I'd choose a kidney stone - you can get rid of it for once, you don't have to feed it and buy stuff for it, and you can keep it in a jar, too!

AME is right. The ****** is built for birthing. I am not saying it's easier but it is a more tolerable sort of pain. Maybe it's because women usually feel the outcome is worth it and are conditioned to believe they can handle it. Kidney stones are jagged and unexpected little lumps of evil tearing through a tiny canal. I don't know any woman who has experienced both pains that thinks childbirth was worse.
