Or ready to pass through . Tired of my drs saying it's small shouldn't hurt well it does 17 years I been dealing with this and each stone is worse . Plz pray this one comes out too.

Get a second opinion. There may be a treatment that can help you.
Sorry no one understands your pain.

The smallest ones tend to hurt the most. I use to get them often but I haven't had any in awhile because I did what my doctor told me to do. He gave me a screen to pee through and I caught some of the broken up stones and then I took them to a lab and had them anaylyzed.

A few days later, I went back to my urologist to find the results. He said they were made up of mostly calcium so he instructed me to cut way back on milk products such as ice cream, cheese, and milk etc, but he told me if I wanted a little cream in my coffee, that would be ok.

The second thing he told me was to drink alot more water.... especially on hot days when I sweat more! He emphasized, it's very important to keep my kidney's flushed out.

I told my urologist, that it might be hard to give up ice cream. It's the first thing I reach for on those hot days in the middle of summer. He told me, giving that up will be very easy when I remind myself of the horrendous pain I lived through in dealing with those kidney stones and you know....he was right!

I am happy to say I took his advise and I haven't had any stones since!

God Bless

Hi sometimes don't understand or feel for someone else. But as Bobby from Maine said they are very painful. I worked as a volunteer in a local hospital. My mother's friend was there on a stretcher waiting for a room and she was in agony.
