I’ve had so many I won’t seek medical attention now unless I’m near death.

I had one a year ago. The Dr in the ER misread the CT scan. I was sent home and told to wait to pass it. They thought it was a 3mm.

Two days later I am laying on the floor of the ER. Crying.

Turns out it wad 7mm and I discovered I had a smaller than normal pathway. That sucker was never going to come out on its own.

Two operations, a stent, and a week of feeling like I was getting slammed in the back with a baseball bat and they finally got it out.

And every damned woman I met told me that it was almost as bad as labor. And they would laugh.

Until I asked them if it hurt like this all day for ten days. That was the only thing that pissed me off.

I wouldn’t wish that pain on anyone.

“I pity any poor fool that gets the stones”

I passed one stone two years ago (my one and only). It was the size of a shirt button. Took me eight months to pass it. Dr. told me I’m now labeled a “producer.” Hope this helps all my fellow “producers”..........

Take a water bottle and sip one large gulp after opening the bottle. Now replace the missing liquid with liquid lemon juice to the top. (Any lemon juice will do) Bottle should be full again. Add one packet of sugar (or splenda etc). Shake the bottle up. Drink two of these per day. I have never produced another stone and have no symptoms. Hope this is helpful.

4 times here....the first time the stone was so large they had to go up and pull it out ( I will you all to guess how that happened but it was quite awful). It was the size of my thumbnail.
Drink lots of water.....stay away from the caffine.
