Life So i have kidney stones - Page 4

SuperBowl4 · 11-04-2022, 02:53 PM

Do you eat a lot of cheese? That is what I found out to be my reason for da stones. I have been in serious pain twice from these kidney stones. The first time I really thought, well this is it. Something has failed internally and I'm toast. That's how bad the pain was. After 12 hours I went to the ER at 3 am and these mother ****ers made me wait until 8 am before they took me in. There was just me and some elderly lady in a wheel chair in the waiting room. They did a scan and told me I had da stones. Gave me a prescription that made the pain go away almost instantly. I passed the stone the next morning. Warm water makes the pain go away. The second time I knew what to do. Jump in the bathtub in as warm of water as you can handle. The pain goes away with the heat and I believe breaks in down so (in my case) it passes quickly. The most pain I have ever been it. I don't eat pizzas anymore. It's not worth it.

If you have chronic stones, especially if they're large or have consistently gotten larger since you first started having them, ask your doctor to make sure your calcium levels are normal. It's not common but in some cases it's not because of anything you're doing, your body is just betraying you like a no-good rat bastard.

It’s worse than gout, trust me.

I never had pancreatitis, but somebody told me it’s worse than gout lol. The individual never had kidney stones to compare. I have heard terrible things about pancreatitis.

Pancreatitis is much worse than gout and very different.
I've had both, pancreatitis once from too much alcohol and gout about 8-9 times.

Gout is prolonged burning pain and inability to get rid of it. It's like having shards of glass lodged in your joints. Mine has been on toes, elbow and ankle at different flareups.

Pancreatitus is a mother ****er of sudden incredible pain that cuts across your abdomen for 30-60 seconds, feels like someone is twisting your upper GI into knots, takes your breath away, made me cry, and then goes away only to repeat this numerous times per hour for 16-28 hours. Your pancreas goes through spasms.

I don't want or need to get stones for comparison. I'll take everone's word on the pain.

Pancreatitis was a 15 on a 1-10 scale. I never want that again, ever. Not even for $5,000,000

I don't fear much, but two of my uncommon, weird fears would be:

1. Having to pass a kidney stone

2. Sink holes.

Remove the kidneys. No kidneys. No kidney stones. Haha

I just happened to see an article about stones with a pic of one under a microscope.

Feast your eyes.

My wife has given birth 3 times, a couple of ectopic pregnancies, but kidney stones were the worst thing she has ever went through. The drive to the ER sucked.

NJChiefsFan · 11-04-2022, 08:13 PM

Had it for the first time in the spring. Had it during the middle of school.
Had to leave my classroom and students mid-period. Brutal. As STaylor said, worst pain of my life. They gave me morphine and it did nothing. If it really is as bad as childbirth than good bless women everywhere. Feeling for you.

I've had kidney stones twice. First time wasn't bad. Wasn't sure what happened. Back just felt funny. Felt like I had to pee big time. Did. Something did not feel right. But it passed. Second time. Got the same wierd feeling in lower back. Much worse symptoms. Much worse. Took a couple-three days to pass. Brutal. Passsed in a blood clot. Wierd feeling. But glad it was over. Didn't dig the stone out of the blood clot, but would be surprised if it had words on it when looked at under the microscope. But that image is what is suspected it looked like on it's travels from my kidneys to my bladder. Pure torture!!!

Driving myself to the ER wasn’t a smart choice.
