I was having a couple of moles removed on my back. While laying on my stomach, my Dr asks “do you like to fish”? I told him I do and he told me that I could take the moles home if I wanted because they make excellent bait.

Weird thing to say but, still to this day he was the best dr my husband and I ever had!

“I shared a picture of your kidney at a conference recently!”

It’s every girl’s dream to have her kidney shared at an endourology conference!

I have a very rare anatomical structure called a calyceal diverticulum, which is a pouch in my kidney that forms kidney stones. The stones can get stuck *twice* and we managed to get a picture of how my first stone got stuck right in the opening of the pouch… because I visited the ER in extreme pain three times.

It was a real money shot, and my endourologist is going to use it to educate students. He definitely wants to help me, but he also can barely contain his glee at my case.

I had a colonoscopy in my mid 60’s. Afterwards the doctor told me I had a “young colon.”
I was so proud.
