when i've used dye for bladder x-rays it was usually to see if there was a tear in the urethra.

did you have to pay for the second surgery?
The stone he removed during the original surgery was in the urethra.

Maybe it was air he used for the x-ray. I thought that he said they were going to first use dye, then air....I can't remember. It was such a stressful time.

He did not charge me for the second surgery...but I can't put a measure on the cost of Oscar being in pain for so long. I just hope that everything can be behind us now. I just want Oscar healthy.
