kidney stones?

[warlock]

Asking for a friend...

Does anyone here ever get kidney stones? How do you deal with this issue? Is there anything one can do to prevent this from happening? Any supplements or specific diet?

Drink a lot of water and eat more alkaline foods like fruits and veggies. An abundance of protein, acidic food and limiting water can attribute.

Most people say its the most painful thing that has happened to them. Like they know they have them as its a killer pain in the posterior-lateral flank.

Thanks brother. I never had kidney stones myself, but it seems to be happening more and more to someone I know. The pain can be excruciating. I'll be sure to relay your info.

I have gotten them in the past, and I would get them about every 2 years from about 21 years old til 27.. I’m 30 now and haven’t gotten any since then and hope to never get them again..

It really is the most painful shit ever when it’s just slightly too big to pass from the kidney to the bladder, like enough to pass but causes pain, OH MAN! I was passing out and dry heaving and pissing blood. It was excruciating.. Only had one like that once, the others were luckily able to pass from the kidney to the bladder without much pain or none at all but then pissing them out felt like the worst STD in the world lol.. But a way I flush them out when I get that feeling that it’s in my bladder about to go into the urethra is I drink TONS of water and hold my pee for as long as I can, and usually that first time I go pee it flushes right out. Didn’t know that the first time and it took me 2 days of drinking water and peeing every hour and little by little it would move and come out.

But as for diet changes, I don’t eat a lot of processed foods but I do enjoy myself a couple times a week.. Alcohol is to a minimum, maybe have like 2-3 drinks a week, sometimes none.. ABSOLUTELY ZERO SODA, and also TEA is a NOOOO.. I used to LOVE peach iced tea, my favorite thing to drink actually, and I haven’t had one in years since my last kidney stone, doc said tea can cause them too and I never looked back.. I drink TONS of water, always hydrated, literally I never pee yellow/dark. At the most a medium yellow after a hard workout or maybe after not peeing/drinking water all night when I sleep but otherwise I’m hydrated, another thing, go pee often, I always flush out my system when I can. I don’t sit and hold my pee unless I absolutely need to..

Magnesium I’ve heard helps prevent kidney stones as well.. I take 4 pills of magnesium L-threonate every day religiously as well along with my other health supps..

I used to get kidney stones every year. It sucks! I haven’t had one in about 7 years since I began taking a magnesium supplement everyday. I found out about the magnesium from a kidney specialist. Also, force yourself to drink drink plenty of water every day.

Had em twice back in the day.... Don't wish it on anybody.. the worst pain i ever felt in my life... like others said....stay hydrated...

 

[warlock]

Thank you guys for taking time to share your knowledge. I figured I'd get good info on this board. My friend ended up in the ER because the pain was so intense.

I'll relay all the information. It seems that proper hydration is key. I'll have her look into magnesium and tea as well.

I appreciate all the info.

Hydrate, hydrate, and hydrate!!!! Had one when I was 21, and had to go to the hospital for it... Miserable experience!

Chanca Piedra is what I had my client use with success. The word itself means stonecrusher. Powerful herb . ACV dissolves them too, I'm assuming its the acetic acid

I really appreciate the input. Chanca Piedra? Never heard of it, but will check it out for sure. How do you recommend using it as far as dosing? Do you just use it when someone is trying to pass a stone or do you take it every once in a while as a prevention type of approach?

Incas take it as preventative and also deploy upon symptoms present, thus so have my patients to prevent reoccuring

I used to have them, tiny ones every 7-8 years. Not anymore. Kidney stones are a consequence of essential nutrient deficiency. Mostly low levels of calcium. Yup, conventional medicine, allopathic, which is USELESS for chronic symptoms and diseases, will tell you that because most kidney stones are made of calcium, therefore you have to stay away from calcium and avoid it like the plague. WRONG, FAKE NEWS. That is as stupid as having an oil leak from the engine, and as a solution, not put any more oil. No more leak. Fixed! WRONG. Im not gonna expand in the explanation but mostly is calcium and others. Now, as all ND doctors will say, taking this nutrient for this and this nutrient for that, DOES NOT WORK. The individual has to completely modify lifestyle. Diet, and incorporate high quality supplements containing all 90 essential nutrients at the right amounts for age and body weight.

Also, plenty of water is needed. BUT STOP! There is a culturally "bro-science", mainstream medicine push for drinking tons of water for health. But there is a HUGE problem. Back in the day, 80-100 years ago and before, we used to get our water fresh from a river or creek. That water ran clean pure FULL OF NATURAL SEDIMENTS. All those sediments were essential minerals in trace amounts. Today water has ZERO essential nutrients, plus is intoxicated with plastic and other garbage. Therefore filling up yourself with plain water is doing nothing in terms of nutrition and hydration. Its serving a purpose of flushing out toxins, BUT in order for the body to perform its detox function, it utilizes guess what: Essential minerals. So the little amount of minerals you get daily, are being utilized for emergency tasks, not being replenished, and flushed out by high amounts of empty water. Ultimate result, chronic symptoms and diseases later in life.

I purify my own water and mineralize every single cup I drink with liquid trace minerals in colloidal state. I take more than the 60 essential actually.

And of course after walking away from MD's and changing my lifestyle, never had stones anymore.

That is a very good product. There are plenty of homeopathic ways to support and enhance health. Homeopathy, herbalism, traditional chinese medicine, ayurvedic medicine, have existed on earth for thousands of years for a reason.

Ended up in the ER with severe pain in my R flank.
CT scan showed I had a piece of a large kidney stone break off the main stone in my R kidney
and get stuck in my R ureter.
Urologist did an emergency lithotripsy procedure that day. Doc put a "temporary" stent
in that ureter during the procedure to allow the crushed fragments of stone to be more freely pissed out.
Had this black string hanging out of my penis like a tampon...NOT comfortable.
Ended up having to keep the stent in an extra week as the follow up xray showed the fragments
hadn't all come out. Pissed through a little cup with a screen to catch the stone fragments over those two weeks.
Most severe pain I have ever experienced!

Drinking lemon water/ lemonade is extremely helpful. The acidic environment helps keep baby shark teeth from forming. I believe alcohol and red meat should be minimized

Is there any scientific support for this advice?

Last one I passed over a decade ago was a very tiny one. Still, the pain is extreme, in severity according to nurses and doctors worse than delivering a baby. It started like a slight soreness on lower left abdomen. Almost like some indigestion. But not got worse and sharper. From slight went to a burning sensation, then a sharp severe pain. I guess it would be similar to be stabbed with a knife and then twist that knife left and right. I drove myself to the ER, literally barely making it. Running red lights, The whole time feeling like jumping out of the truck and just curling on the floor in pain. Got the the ER, pain was so severe that even my arm was cramped and the nurse couldnt inject anything. I had to put a huge effort and concentration to relax my arm so she could finally give me something.

She injected Demerol, the most wonderful feeling I have felt in my life. It felt like if it swept my pain from top of my head to the bottom all the way to the tip of my toes, killing it instantly and completely while feeling so relaxed, calm and in peace. Felt so comfy and cozy. X-ray later showed the tiny stone at the bottom of the urethra almost entering the bladder.

Next weekend drank a lot of beer and while under the influence I felt like a burning sensation all the way from the bladder to my dick. I guess I pissed the little piece of shit.

I believe apple cider vinegar will dissolve those fuckers quickly, i think thats where the guy earlier was going with the @lemon reference (most citrus contains acetic acid). Acetic acid/acv has been used since and by Hippocrates in ancient greece, exhaust your natural resources dude, time is ticking. You have a stint hanging out of your penis, how can hell be any worse?
