4. Thanks for asking Proles
I had a HUGE attack this morning.

I had to give a presentaion in front of class about Date rape drugs while masking my Agony. 4 Hours of shser pain. I was going to go to the hospital instead, but my professor said their was no time to make it up and I'd fail.

So I did the presentation and sat down for 30 minutes then the pain faded. So I'm on some vicodins now, chilling. Thanks for asking though, good to know people are looking out for me. I'm chugging gatorade so help the process.

6. Well, I've never had them
nor does it sound like I want to. How do you get them? Is this your first time? How do you know its kidney stones and not something else?

7. This if my first time
Last month I wonke up in terrifying pain so I went to the hospital

Clues you have a kidney stone - crippling sharp pain in the lower back/side area.

blood in your urine/ dark concentrated urine

poor diet/ exercise habbits


They did a catscan and showed I had a stone lodged in my uriter.

So they take a while to pass. If they're too big that have to use techniques to remove them (using sound, catheters, etc)

They wanted mine to pass but it might be lodge. Next time I will go to the hospital again

I'm gonna change my diet, too many vitamins/minerals , cholesterol, sodium, and not enough fluids contribute to getting stones.

9. I drink gallons of water every day
and I certainly will be keeping that up.

Hope you feel better soon! :hug:

And if this isn't any motivation to change your eating habits, I don't know what would be.

8. it's been called a man's form of labor.
Pain starts in your back and works down to your groin. It's excruciating pain. You vomit.

Mine was 2/3 calcium, probably from too much coffee.

10. I think that the shot takes care of that
I've had friends that say that it stops or at least severely lightens menstruation. My friend said that it is unhealthy to menstruate. If that is true, why do non hormonally regulated non pregnate women healthy women do it?
