If that is what it takes, I guess I have 16 of them stashed away somewhere.

I'm sure Carlos is hoping all of them are EXITING. And it is probably EXCITING for him when they do.

Good God Carlos, that thing is huge!! I've only ever had one of these and hope like hell I never have another one. I was at work and they took me to the ER. I was white as a sheet. They took me back and told me to piss in a cup and this rock came rolling out. I was like, are you kidding me? This is what was making me think I was dying? I couldn't imagine having one as big as what you passed.

All of you that have posted that have passed at least one can certainly imagine.
I am so glad I am able to laugh about it after only four hours or so of "labor".
Last July, spent three trips to the ER of at least 6 hours each and lots of morphine and IV's, all in a 48 hour period to pass two stones.
This one was easy and the bigger they are, believe it or not, the less painful.

#16 is on its way. Its destiny has been set now.
I wonder what I will name this one?
I wonder if I will be spared from enduring hours of pain or days.
I am seriously thinking about a trip to teh ER right now and the morphine and that buzz to the back of the neck as the injection goes through my veins.
That is probably the only good thing I get out of these darn kidney stones.

Since we are in a new year, I guess that now makes it 16 in 16 yrs.
Happy Birthday Stone!!!......well, soon hopefully.
Damn...

From the title of the thread, I initially thought you were talking about children...

Apparently, it is like giving birth... My Dad had them...

Hope you feel better soon!

They ARE my children.
I love all 16 of them just as much as the other.

A nurse once told me she did both. She gave birth to three kids and passed two stones.
She said the pain was equal. At least with the childbirth, she had something wonderful to show for it.
Look at me. All I have is a bunch of rocks.

In addition, sodium is believed to be a culprit.
If you see the actual list of what one who suffers from stones can in fact eat, the only thing pretty much left on it is water. Heck if I want to live eating water.

Some people like me have a chemistry composition that just traps the calcium in the kidney, little by little forming a stone or a few, as opposed to having the kidney let the oxilate escape via the urine. I am actually on medication to assist in the prevention of them. That lasted since July when I had my last one. I guess the bright side is I had 6 months or so stone free.

Well, as tired as I am, tried going back to sleep for a while but that is just not going to happen.
o really? I was always told that stones had a lot to do with stress and sodas and such. Maybe just a myth to keep kids from drinking soda, but I only drink tea and water most of the time. I rarely drink a soda. glad to hear you got it done without an ER visit though!

Damn - 16. I'm just about ready to cry for you!

I have had three of them myself. First one to the ER - second one was all natural at home pain - third one was an all nighter in the ER. And that last one gave me pain for a little over three weeks before it passed. To small to zap they told me - but an extremely slow mover.

Anyway - that was in April 2004 so I'm going on 5 years stone free.

Yeah, there are so many myths on this stuff.
One of the most common is the Cranberry juice.
My Urologist tells me it is actually worse for stones.
Go figure.

My stones were because of my salt intake. The last one i had, i smoked the other leaf to get through it. That one was a home delivery. I do not wish this pain upon anybody
