This failed real estate salesman reality show host repeated-bankruptcy "businessman" idiot making one of his many many unkept promises. Three-plus years and he hasn't done shit about making people safer, unless you're a racist.

"We can wait?"

WTF are you waiting for except for him to hire more of his kids into the White House,
secure more patents for his girlfriend daughter,
rack up more profits from making the Secret Service stay at his properties,
and deciding - when America faces a pandemic - to hide inside watching morning news programs,
skipping official briefings, and
holding rallies where he tells his supporters to not protect themselves from the very very real infection that'll kill a large number of them in about a month.

You're wanting that instead of universal healthcare coverage like the rest of the civilized and more advanced nations? Then you're an idiot. 

Everyone says so.

My FIL was prescribed the wrong antibiotic for his UTI and ended up having everything shutdown down there and went 13 plus hours before they got a Foley in him. The last 4 hours he was kept waiting at the hospital. He had 550 mls of urine in his bladder when he was finally drained. They spent the next 3 days watching his white blood count go down using intravenous antibiotics around the clock. He's 89 and I can't believe they made him sit there for 3 hours after he was triaged at the emergency room before they gave him any relief.{#War}

Went into temporary obstructive acute renal failure, which threw my chemistry off so bad that I had intractable hiccuping. The ED doc that saw me for pain control said “you’re probably just swallowing air from the pain” and then I stopped being polite.

Passed it after about 24 hours, but the hiccuping continued for another day, then resolved as my chemistry came back to normal.

CT tells me I get to do this seven more times...

Never wanted to go engage in a discussion of principles here. Sorry for your knee, I suffered the same, some years ago (among other, worse, latter things).
Psychosomatics tells us, that there is a relationship between the spirit of man, and his/her body. Nothing else.
 
yes, I understand.. ("Krankheit als Weg" gel.. hast es gelesen?)  I read it about 30 years ago.
And I don't doubt there is a relationship between the spirit of man and his/her body. Just I think the material generally takes precedence over the spiritual by a wide margin, although of course it is complicated. A sick soul can easily create a sick body, no doubt about it.

Forgive me, if this isn't your piece of cake. I have come to learn about psychosomatics a long way myself. It is why I am posting this, hoping it might shed some personal insight to relieve you of this ailment. In psychosomatics, all organs that exist in a paired form (i.e. left and right, such as lungs, kidneys, reproductive organs, etc. are interpreted as dealing with, or having to do with the relationships we have in the world.)


For a psychosomatic view in general:
Read the psychosomatic meaning with an open mind, taking note of what aspects resonate (ring true) with you.
Remember that the first step of becoming aware of the possible causes of your ailment is the catalyst for self-healing. Awareness, coupled with the willingness to heal, will lead to a process of unfolding the causal thoughts and behaviors behind your state of health.


Kidneys – What is the Mind-Body Connection?

The kidneys filter how we relate to those who are closest to us, in other words, what we hold on to and what we let go. They are sensitive to issues with families and relationships, particularly regarding the balance of power and our sense of empowerment in relationships.

Kidney Stones – What is the Mind-Body Connection?

You have let your frustration with your relationship/s fester to the point where they have become solidified inside you. You need to find a constructive outlet for this frustration and resolve your issue with this relationship.

Kidney Failure – What is the Mind-Body Connection?

You have given up hope of resolving the relationship issues you have with someone close to you. You need to see the light in this situation so you can work towards having the relationship that you want with this person or be at peace without it.

Kidney Infection – What is the Mind-Body Connection?

Other Names: Kidney Inflammation
A relationship issue has come to the surface to be resolved however, you feel angry about this so you are holding on to this feeling in order to feel powerful. You need to release your anger and focus your energy on what you truly want for this relationship.
This is meant as an aside to what  physicians can do for us. 

Good luck!

 
With all due respect, what I see in such an anthropomorphic approach has more to do with the human need to make a narrative out of every accident to try and win back a modicum of control when actually we have none. I got Lyme's disease this year and the associated knee effusion. Something I share with a lot of wild deer out there. Shall and I go and sit with them in the meadows and talk about knees representing past hurts and injustices?  
Sometimes it pays just to accept we made of dust and water and, well, shit happens.

I had to look....   

While in college I heard second-hand about a proctologist called down to the ER for such an issue. The patient was a man with a toy alligator stuck way up his ass. The first words out of his mouth were, "Don't say anything, just get it out."

I loved this one from the list:

"HAD ANAL SEX & HAS BRUISING, BLOOD ON TOILET PAPER, TOOK CRYSTAL METH TO HELP PAIN"

    In sex ed class the teachers always earnestly encouraged people to ask questions. One of my friends figured out that he could fluster pretty much any teacher by asking innocently about urethral masturbation.
