Dealing with Crohn's

Any day I have to go to the VA Hospital fasting, always sucks. This time it was for an ultrasound of my abdomen. I've been having a sharp pain in my left kidney that reminds me of the horror of passing a kidney stone several years ago. Another of the long term "benefits" of Crohn's is kidney stones. Since my digestive system is already compromised, it is prone to pass too much fatty ingredients into my kidneys, which eventually turn into stones. Now I've been through a lot of pain in my life, but nothing, except maybe for surgery, compares to passing a
kidney stone. Now, I wait for the results to see if any thing was detected.
