Thanks guys--I had Kidney Stone surgery yesterday and am feeling a bit under the weather. To those who never had them you do not want em' trust me. To those whom have you know what it is all about--PAIN!!!!!

i have a few people i wish would get them!

How can you prevent those from happening? Ouch...:eek:

Yeah I second that. What to do? What to do?

Kidney stones to this day remain a medical mystery. There is no cure or preventive measures to take. Just drink a lot of water to flush them out of your system before they become large and lodged. I get them at least once every 2 years or so and wish that I have never experienced the ungodly pain associated with them.

:(

Sorry to hear about that man, that really sucks.

I had to live with a stomach ulcer for about 2 years; I know that is not the same but I hurt every night and I had to give up my favorite food for a while "hot wings". But I am better now.
Good luck man, Hope you feel better.

Ouch. Man dude that sucks. How long does it take to get rid of those things. They just sound like they hurt like hell.

it takes anywhere from a day to a few weeks for them to pass. they inject dye into your blood stream and then take x-rays to determine size and location of the stones. they then decided if surgery is what is required to dislodge them. not a very pleasnt ordeal. before they inject the dye the give you some med that makes you feel like you are going to jump out of your skin. and then the good med comes. demerol or morphine, i prefer demerol it is good stuff. coming down off of the meds is tough and painful

Wow, i feel for u man, and I hope u start to feel better.

Isnt kidney stones a build up of the body's minerals?? Anyway I am glad you got them out. I can only imagine the pain you were in. Hope you get well soon. Take care
*haley*

I heard it's worse for a man, then a women. Do women even get them???

ow ow ow ow ow ow OW!!!!! Sorry to hear about that man. Hope I never have to go through that.:(

Dang, the morning manager at work gets kidney stones real bad also.

I hope you recover quickly man. Cant stand to see a fella Mustanger down.

stones
 

I passed one and It is more painful than childbirth according to a woman who had done both. I am definetly grateful for demarol as without it or another drug like it suicide would be hard to pass up. Anyway staying hydrated is suppose to help and don't eat too many rolaids, etc.

I drink lot's of water everyday.:)
