Here I sit... Waiting for a load? Nope. Waiting to pass a kidney stone!! At least I am home. Had it move on me when I was out last week. Had a few of them so I am mostly ready.... I must say I hadn't had one in 5 or more years, so I am a little concern as to why another had presented itself to my attention. Those of you, who have never had the opportunity to have one of these little visitors, let me say that everything you have heard about the little stone is true. It will make a grown man cry and roll all over the place to find relief, relief that will not come until. it comes out or gets struck. I had a big’in get struck one time and they had to go in with a wire-mess basket to get it…Oh that was fun I must say! Quarter inch long shaped like the run of a rocking chair and had a few brothers and sisters alone for the ride. That one put me in the hospital for 6 days. When I came out of surgery, my wife, as they were rolling me into my room, said, “Look at the TVâ€! My lovely wife and sister went to the gift shop and purchased a sign with a stork caring a baby girl. The wording said, “ It’s a Girlâ€, my wife said we finely have a girl after three boys… Oh she is soooo funny!
In short drink plenty of fluids and pee as much as you can. Do not hold it. Gives time for the stuff to stick together and form the little stones. Flush yourself out as much as possible. Milk, cheese, tomatoes, green leafy veggies helps in the formation of kidney stones.
It becomes scary out here when a medical problem comes up. Now a kidney stone is nothing like other medical problems, but it will put you out of service.
