Still waiting

Still waiting for the passage of the stone. It still causes me pain every now and then. Today I woke up with some pain around my belly button again. I don't know what's damn wrong.
Anyways, less than 2 weeks left for the end of the semester and to be precise only 13 days and to be really accurate, 12 days and 20 hours because the final exam will end at 12pm on friday July 22nd. I have the second mid term and the lab second exam on tuesday. I hope I will do better. I will do my best although i studied for them even less than the first mid term because of my physical woes. I will try to exert more effort during the next 3 days including today. However, i will waste a lot of time tomorrow because of a football (soccer) match between Ahly and Enyimba (NGR) in the Africam Champions League. The match will be played in Nigeria. It will be a tough match for Ahly as Enyimba is the title holder of the last 2 years.

Most boring lab and the stone is almost there

Today featured lab experiment no. 12, the most boring lab experiment ever. It was about clamping and clipping voltage signals. The experiment itself is easy but I had to draw 12 sketches on 8 graph papers in less then 3 hours!!! I am very slow with graphs and I really hate them.

Anyways, more important is my stone that has been the only reason behind my health after the amoeba that caused me 6 kilograms of weight loss earlier this month. The pain in my stomache /side receded and is limited to my groin and sometimes my "private". I still pee normally but last time I started feeling some burning. Its coming out in few hours.

I found a good technique that helps in moving down the stoned in the ureter thanks to that website http://www.jumpandbump.com/

check their illustrating animation here. http://www.jumpandbump.com/animation%20page.htm

I reccommend this site to you all who suffer from stones but in consultation with you doctor.
I will keep you updated, this will be my busiest blogging day.
