Kidney stones are no fun at all. When I get a that particular lower back pain for no reason at all, i super hydrate for 3-5 days to helps that little one work through before it decides to settle down and grow into a big one. Blah.

Yep I'm hydrating to push it but that usually escalates the pain as it builds pressure till it moves..........this too shall pass

Hate to hear about the kidney stone, that sucks.

Thanks Dave! As far as we know, they all passed. Seemed like staying hydrated was the key.

Doh! I’d say what I think about this but I’d get censored again. Sorry brother, that really sucks.

I listened to a Grand Rounds last week actually about the prevention of kidney stones. They cited a lot of research showing that some common wisdom even by general practitioners isn’t correct any more. Of course we all know the #1 way to reduce the reoccurrence is hydration every day. At least 2L. The 2nd most important thing to do is reduce sodium intake. Apparently I’ve forgotten the pain because it hasn’t stopped me from my lightly pistachios.

Are we talking lithotripsy here?

Kidney stones + early July: beware of the new residents! Hope you are able to stay comfortable, Dave.
