I’ve passed over 55 stones since 1991 and have gotten such conflicting information over the years from 7 different urologists. First it was no dairy foods. Then a year later, eat yogurt, cheese and all dairy products. Have had multiple lithotripsy and cystoscopies. All stones have been calcium oxalate. Last stone I passed in the hospital was 9 mm. Then the hospital discharged me and within a day I developed sepsis and it was dicey for a week at another hospital. Take care of yourself and don’t fool around with kidney stones.

Straight & simple talk here. I'd get up to 4 very large (oxalate) kidney stones a year. I've had NONE for 7 years now. I use something called 'Stone Breaker' tablets I get from Walmart. Active ingredient is something called Chanca Piedra & there are other brands available. Dosage is recommended 3 tablets a day (about 25 cents each) but I find that one a day works for me. If I feel back pain like from a pending stone I simply go to two tabs a day for a while & never had a problem.

was there any pain while stoney was removing through urine

[@michaelwhite6461]

Having had a large kidney stone about 5 years ago I can agree with most of what is stated here, but also disagree with some as well. I received ultrasound treatment on my kidney stone as it was determined that it was too large to pass (after an x-ray scan), at that point I'd just been managing the pain with large doses of pain killers for about a month. The ultrasound roughly smashed the stone in half (pulverising half of it, which I passed later that day), half remained and slowly worked it's way down. This followed an approximate cycle of every two weeks I would have to manage the pain for 2 or 3 days. This continued for the next 4 months (so I wish it had only taken 40 days!) until I finally passed the stone in approximately 30 seconds of the second worst physical pain I have ever felt (the top spot on that list was the first day the stone left the kidney). Ironically, this was only a few days before I was scheduled for a second session of ultrasound treatment (which they should have given me much earlier, but no-one was aware that I'd only had one). One of the comments in the video I feel I would disagree with is the drinking of lots of fluids while trying to pass a stone. It's certainly good advice if the stone is small, but it can cause increased pain, pressure and complications if the stone is large and obstructing the ureter almost completely (depending on shape). So that advice I would say is on a case by case basis. In my particular case, the remainder of the stone was an irregular shape which made it painful when it moved, but it didn't seem to obstruct the flow of urine to the bladder significantly. Finally I would just like to express my sympathies to anyone who has to go through this - I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy ;-)

I guess I had a 4mm stone (mine are super jagged sharp and go in all directions) I cried. I was scared. It sucked. Docs said I had a couple more. But I was no longer in pain once it passed and that’s all I cared about. Well here we are 4 years later. DUN DUN DUN. Last month 3mm by 6mm came out pain lasted 1-3 hours not too bad. And now… as I’m typing this I have been going on 3 weeks now of non stop every few minutes or hours stone pain in my groin and inner thigh and all over. All I can think is those old stones are wanting to come down but are struggling bad. (I have 3 in left kidney largest is 3mm and 1 in right kidney smaller than 1mm) to my fellow humans I am so sorry if your hurting reading this. I am right there with you. All I can suggest is at night take 1-2 Tylenol PM drink 2 glasses of water and remember it’s temporary. To those experiencing it alone, we are all here! And in 1 month you’ll be back to normal!

The ureter is 4mm in diameter. Any stone above 4mm probably won't pass because it's too big. I should also point out, the larger the stone the better. Weird to say, I know. But as someone who had a 6mm stone, the pain was unbearable because it was small enough to move around.

The third time was a smaller stone that passed after a few days. My comment about my kidneys is that they are trying to excrete a gravel driveway, one stone at a time... Thanks for your channel, it a very useful source of information. :)

[@looloo6322]

I had one stone started at 7mm, 10/10/2010, originally left the kidney, a year later I thought a second stone 1/4 way down the tube, a year later 3/4 way down towards the bladder. about a year later it was stalled near the bladder. All four times pain beyond relief, all four time went to the emergency room. Only on the last time did the ER Doctor figure it was the same stone slowly sliding down the tube from the Kidney to the Bladder. The next day a camera, laser and basket was shoved in and located, blasted and grabbed. The first urination was like shooting sand from a shotgun. It's been 7 years and I've been pain free, stone free.

I went to a French military hospital and got seen by a French Army doctor. who sat me up on a table and without warning started hitting me full force on my kidney. I was thinking what did I do to him? I have never had a MD try to beat me up over a kidney stone before. Until he told me he was trying to loosen my kidney stone so I could pass it. That was before we found out how big it was and it had to be surgically removed. I almost starting yelling "help ! I'm being beat up by a Frenchman".

A little perspective for those that haven’t endured it. Crystal light lemonade has potassium citrate in it which helps prevent the formation of calcium oxalate stones and limiting the oxalates you eat helps. I also tried olive oil and lemon juice mix (look it up) whilst trying to pass a painful stone. They suck period. Lately I get those tell tale pains every so often but it seems they are small enough to pass without as much fuss. I too had pain in my testicles and was like wtf 😳 so I was glad (?) to learn it was referred pain from a stone. To anyone that gets them: oh boy do I feel your pain.

It’s absolutely ridiculous how the ER treats the issue and it’s all dependent of what staff you get.

Allopathy couldn't help as all they had as a suggestion was surgery. After researching on the internet I went to an Ayurvedic physician and took the medication for 3 months (and continuing) and I have passed all these kidney stones. Though I still get occasional minor pain assuming their are still fragments left or being newly formed but the result has been magnificent.

@@Cra2y_M3rmaid the ER said it was "unlikely" to pass. Ive had several days pain free since then, only a couple waves of pain, at maybe a 3 on a scale of one to ten. When i went to the ER it had been at TWENTY, off the pain scale charts. And they just let me sit in the ER in agony for two hours, that was my first red flag that hospitals dont care about people, only PROFITS. Look, people have been passing kidney stones for a lot longer than doctors have been around. There ARE natural alternatives for dealing with them. Im so glad I did my research and went the natural way, instead of allowing doctors to poke and prod me, and make ten thousand dollars off of my one little kidney stone. The natural remedies (lemon juice, ACV, Chanca Piedra, etc) DISSOLVED it. Its GONE now, and it cost me maybe $50.

My personal doc told me once - As a doctor I can't recommend it officially, but as a man to man I would suggest - if you're in kidney stone pain, take 3 or 4 bottles of beer and then sit into a hot bath for half an hour .. those suckers should come out now. This advice became a life saver to me .. that damn pain can be incredible ...

Hey dear how are you doing ?

[@SWildMF]

Why would this help?

[@chaz9808]

That is terrible advice lol

[@tvs3497]

Did you pee in the hot tub? I've heard beer will help. And sitting in a hot tub relieves the pain of hemmroids. So there's something there.

@@carolynjohnson7308 Try *Chanca Piedra* it works it helped me past a 12mm kidney stone pain free after taking it for 3 days. It's a natural herb.

If anyone says you can’t pass out from pain; they have never had a kidney stone.😂

[@Zaysworld23]

On god 😂

[@snivels]

I've had about 30 in my life, most of them have passed without issue and I barely notice them until they just come out. But I've had a few that required surgery to remove and the pain from those was unfathomable. Drop to your knees screaming, delirious type of pain.

[@bighawk99]

I wanted to yeet myself off the balcony it was so painful 😂😂

[@jonathanmiller7499]

I'm 40 with my first one! I've not passed out yet! But I have thrown up! I've never thrown up from pain before!

It would be great if you started this video by explaining what kidney stones are, and the symptoms, so we can know if we even need the rest of the information in the video.

[@mikeryman76]

My urologist said stones can take months to over a year to pass. It took me 9 months to pass a 9mm stone. Yes, I DID pass it. Mine are calcium oxalate stones. Phosfood liquid helps break down stones. It is a phosphorus rich liquid sold in many natural health stores, and it actually eats and erodes stones. A chiropractor gave Mr a bottle to try, and it works. I have stones on a regular basis, stones do not hurt as much anymore now that the ureter has been stretched on my left side.

Hey dear how are you doing ?

[@evropa3570]

What do you mean by it took 9 months to pass? So it happened gradually for one stone or pain was on or off? What

[@mikeryman76]

Yes it was one stone, and took that long to pass. I get stones every other year, and my urologist told me people can go well over a year before a stone passes. This one was my worst. It took 9 months for it to travel from my kidney to my bladder. Yes it hurt badly, but it was temporary. Pain would hit, and I felt muscle spasms trying to force it downward, then pain would stop. It would hit me 4 or 5 times a day, then stop. My kidney was shut off literally for 9 months, then one day the pain hit again and I felt it shoot into my bladder. It came out within a few hours. The stone was the size of a large pea, (9mm) and somewhat egg shaped. I have bad nerve damage in my spine, and have lived with it all my life without meds, stones are no different to me.

[@pratik7414]

Hey Mike you're a very brave guy. I'm also having calcium oxalate stones so could you please elaborate what kind of phosphorus rich liquids you took?
