kidney stones

Has anyone had them ? What were your experiences ?

I currently am trying (painfully) to pass one.

Mine were a protein-based stone, which came about from not drinking enough fluids(yes the pain was severe). I drank a ton of water(3 to 4 quarts a day, minimum, doctors orders)and hydrodynamics did the rest, pushing it on through. Shortly after, I had been eating a bunch of rolaids, which have a lot of calcium. I formed a small calcium stone, and again I stepped up the water intake which pushed it through.


Now i drink a plenty of fluids with my meals, and in between meals. No more problems for well over two years.


If you're experiencing a lot of pain, any doctor will give you pain pills.
