probably because i’ve been eating a lot of really awesome street food (that’s admittedly sodium-rich but my choices are on me)

worst pain ever though like not even getting shot would feel this awful but hey at least i now know i’d make for a good punk screamer

anyway ended up going to the hospital and and despite being a foreigner on an L visa it was easy and affordable, and since my chinese is terrible (they naturally assumed such in advance) they had an english-speaking doctor video-call me to explain what the other doctors were doing before using one of those machines to punch my kidney stones into kidney dust

healthcare here is pretty cool, so common china W 😎 too bad i’m pissing blood

    That wouldn’t even cover my (US) monthly health insurance payment, and that’s before receiving any treatment at all which naturally comes with thousands of dollars in deductibles.
