Two years before this, I was rushed to hospital as I had collapsed from severe stomach and back pain; and not being able to pass urine.

I was not scanned only x rayed, had my blood dyed.

I was told it was probably a suspected passing kidney stone!!!

How wrong was that hospital, as I had repercussions of pain in left kidney; i had to insist to my GP that I needed a scan as something was so wrong inside my body.
