My mother is a nurse, when a grown man on Morphine balls up I to the fetal and cries..... It's real.
That said, I know most of the tricks.
Hot water, hydro's, & Oxy's, help a lot
I ran in 4 marathons until 2006 when a stone reared it's ugly head and blocked the passage to my bladder. I suffered for 6 weeks with that stone until my kidney was about to shut down. Just as my doctor was finally recommending surgical options to save my kidney, it finally broke up and released.
The doctor had my stones analyzed after they passed and luckily found a remedy. Passing stones still recurred for years until 2011 when through additional diet changes ordered by my doctor I have been able to finally be kidney stone free for 2 plus years (fingers crossed).
The pain is excruciating and eclipses anything (sorry ladies, I know we live in feminist times but childbirth does not last two to six weeks straight).
PM me Oak and I can give you some advice on what worked for me.
