I dunno if you are able to try it, but Cranberry Juice works for me when I got kidney stones. I have gotten them twice, and both time, Cranberry Juice made "swift" work of them. Around 2 days I was able to naturally get them out of my system via peeing.Once they're made and passing you're not really doing much besides making extra pee to blast them out as efficiently as possible. You'd be able to do the same chugging water.
It HURT bad, both having the stone, and releasing the stone.
Do you know how you got it? >_>They told me to stop drinking energy drinks
I've always been scared of getting those, even though I've totally eliminated fizzy drinks from my diet and just drink water and tea.

What procedure do you have to be awake for? When mine got stuck in my ureter and they had to blast it, they knocked me out.Yeah, about that...................................my procedure tomorrow is the stent method. I, too, would've prefer some noninvasive ultrasound techno wizardry. Maybe if I drink enough H20, I can create a nephro-miracle.
This sucks lol
A one-centimeter concretion shouldn't hurt this much lol
They told me to stop drinking energy drinks
Used to drink a few of those when I was younger. Glad I didn't continue my bad habits.I smashed at least one every day for years
A one-centimeter
really you just need to drink at least some water. everything else is so full of shit that it gives the kidneys a hard timeYeah I wasnt a big water drinker. Now thats basically all I drink all day and then Ill have a fresca or something at home with dinner
I'm sorry what
I'm sorry whatFor reference, that's nearly the size of an M&M
0.394 inches
maybe if your urethra was a centimeter wide >_>Now that I think about this, I did make a Hank Hill urethra joke on Reddit a few days ago. This might be karma.
The first time I got them it felt like a crazy stomach ache you get before you have to take a dump. A dump that would never come. After awhile the pain was too much that I had to go to the hospital because I didnt know if it was my appendix or what the fuck was happening. I was puking from the pain in the waiting room and they wouldnt give me any sort of pain relief till they verified the stones with an ultrasound. As soon as they showed me the stones in both kidneys they pushed the morphine really fast. That was an amazing feeling getting IV morphine for the first time holy guacamole. The second time I knew what was happening and had some pain killers to get through the pain. Only took a day.I lucked out twice. First, I hadn't eaten anything, so I mostly just had dry heaves and a little bile. Secondly, I was the only ER patient, so I got to be babied by some kawaii nurses the whole time. But yeah, I understand the "I'm giving it all I got, cap'n!!" feeling when it comes to expelling anything, just to have a modicum of relief.
Im sorry youre going through this tc it will be over soon.

lolYou seem to be in good spirits at least?

I went through so many IVs today, I might have dislodged it already (albeit back upwards, which is better than having it block my plumbing). Might try the pinch method before I try the cranberry method, since apparently that can backfire.Yeah but you know thats not why right

The irony is that apparently lemons are good for breaking up kidney stones (or stopping their formation) and I drink lemonade all the time. And what day did I run out of my lemonade? Yesterday. I can't make this crap up.
Fuck, I never want to experience kidney stones in my lifeThe misconception about kidney stones is people think something pointy coming out of my wiener but its really just the crazy pain in your body. The passing of the stone is not even that bad, and it all usually feels fine after it passes

This is like saying bullets feel fine after they've been surgically removed under general anesthesia.I mean, its nothing like that but okay

The misconception about kidney stones is people think something pointy coming out of my wiener but its really just the crazy pain in your body. The passing of the stone is not even that bad, and it all usually feels fine after it passesThis is pretty true. Lots of people think it's like pooping where you can kind of feel it moving along. It's more like it moves and you don't know where it is but you're out of pain so who gives a fuck, then it gets stuck again and you're feeling it. You can kind of guess where it's at from where you're feeling pain. Then it's just over.

TCs case might be a bit different though because it's pretty large. Most of my experience are with ones 3-5cm. They're a lot easier to pass unassisted or at worse with some Flomax to dilate the pipes.
