Back to Maui for Kim's Kidney Stone Removal

Luckily I have been able to pass the Kidney Stone the 2 times I have had them. Painful but they did pass.

Do you know why you’re getting kidney stones? They sound awful!

The analysis on mine was inconclusive. My wife's were calcium based but varied also so unfortunately not much help there.

The one that they removed form my wife was huge, 2 inches. It would have never passed but it was causing infections.

Wow!! I am speechless. 2" !!! Yes, that needs to be either broken up with Lithotripsy or surgically removed. Mine were only about 1/4" and got stuck on the way out.

My last kidney stone my have been aggravated by myself. I was taking a bunch of zinc suppliments thinking that they'd protect me form covid. Later I learned that they were likely contributory to me getting a kidney stone.

Yes, the doctor said it was one of the largest she had broken up. This was the first time she had issues on the right side. Her other 2 were removed from her left side.
 
I have had a few kidney stones. Any time I feel that pressure building that I think is a kidney stone I drink alot of lemon juice and water. I drink 8 ounces of lemon juice and 8 ounce of water the 2 ounces of lemon juice and 8 ounces of water every hour until I go to bed. For me, it mushes the stones sharp edges and they either pass or dissolve. It was a Naturopathic MD that suggested this remedy.
