Now for a piece of real medical advise. Go to a urologist, and make sure he
does a 24 hour urine test. Yep, carry a jug around, and pee in it.

I have had about 20 stones, with the last one getting hung, and removed via
surgery. I got the 24 hour test, and the result came back, with him telling
me my body absorbed more calcium than normal.

I now take a simple diuretic, one a day, and have not had a stone in about
10 years.

You see, there are different kinds of stones. One treatment does not cure
all.

Get a test. If not, you must like the pain. g

By the way, there are pains that makes stones seem tame. One is to have a
liter of bile, floating around in your belly, from a ruptured bile duct. It
took all the morphine and Demerol they could give me to knock me out.
