Will the pain when urinating w/stent pass?

I have a UTI the prevents them from going in and surgically removing a very troublesome stone. But as you all know running around with a blocked ureter is a recipe for a dead kidney. Accordingly I had a stent inserted this morning.

The stent they're using is shaped like a shepherd's hook on both ends. That is one end is hooked and sits in the kidney with the end of the hook portion very close to the entrance to the ureter.

The other end into the bladder, thereby maintaining stent positioning.

Taking a piss with this thing in is agony. It feels exactly like the high point of an attack. Will this pass? opiates tramadol ketorolac nothing touches this.

Favorite matches to watch - can we treat this like chess?

I used to watch a lot of pool on TV. My favorite was the Derby City Classic. They had a thing called a "moral safe" that I found amusing. The feel was more loose than most of the title matches, and it was a lot of fun to watch.

I also watched particular players to learn. It reminds me a bit of how chess players can analyze games and learn strategy and tactics. My favorites were Johnny Archer and Alison Fisher.

Do you have any reccomendations for either Fun to Watch or Reference Games?

edit: The responses are exactly what I was hoping for.

Re-issues to avoid on CD

Apparently a lot of people my age are dying, because I've been able to blow up my CD collection via Goodwill recently. I don't really care if they sound good or if I toss them because they're only a dollar each.

But there are some albums that I absolutely need a quality copy of. Last week I got a copy of Exile on Main Street on CD and I gotta tell ya, it sounds like shit.

Is there some kind of a list or resource that I can look at that would show classic rock and blues albums/CDs/reissues/remasters that I should avoid?

Are the constant pop-ups a violation of the ADA?

I just got off the phone with QuickBooks support. My issue with them is that the ads that constantly cover my work move things around on the screen and cause me to perform incorrect clicks. Unfortunately my vision isn't what it used to be, so this is becoming a real issue.

Now I'm starting to wonder if this could be a violation of the ADA.
