Kenyan award-winning radio presenter, Billy Miya has opened up on his battle with kidney stones that got him admitted in hospital for a week.
The popular Radio Maisha presenter was at the time heading to a police station to settle a pending issue before experiencing sharp pains below his belly.
Up and close with Pulse Live, Billy recalled:
I had an appointment with the police, so on reaching the police station I experienced very sharp pains in succession just below my belly.
He held on a bit but as the pains got severe, he decided to check himself into an AAR healthcare facility before being referred to a different hospital that established the cause of the pain as kidney stones.

When I couldn´t take it anymore I drove myself to AAR where they referred me to a hospital where I got diagnosed with kidney stones. I stayed in the hospital for a week after going through laser operation.
