• Shkoder Day 13-16

    August 13, 2025 in Albania ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

    Got back from Montenegro and took a nap before getting roped into going to prekal again for a few hours. It was beautiful and I actually swam this time because it wasn’t as cold. Got back and realized I forgot to separate my whites so my white clothes are now splotchy green but it made my packing decisions easier because I was contemplating getting rid of some of the clothes.

    Fast forward, that evening I had the worst stomach ache and diarrhea… I’m talking on the toilet every hour on the hour. The next morning I had a nail appointment that I had cancelled already so I had to go. So I got some medicine and thugged it out. I went back to sleep after and then the lower back pain started. I slept all day and then went to bed early, but then it kept getting more and more unbearable and it reminded me of when I had a kidney stone 2 years ago. So I went to the ER but it’s not like what I’m used to so we didn’t stay we left and went to a pharmacy to get me medicine and now I’ve just been popping pain pills and sleep meds to rest it off and hydrating like my life depends on it with electrolytes…

    Next day I went and pissed in a cup at a clinic and I await for results on Monday to see if there’s an infection and I will get my blood drawn that day to check levels as well.
    Anyways, 99% sure it’s a kidney stone so if I could count how many I’ve had at the ripe age of 22 that is 2… 2 too many for my liking but here I am I guess.

    Also… nail lady popped off 20 euros is a STEAL!!
