My dad recently had a kidney stone and his chiropractor told me this way to get rid of it.


All this done has to be done within 15 minutes.

Drink 6 classic cokes
and eat 2 baby food cans of puréed asparagus


It is supposed to disolve the stone.



Hope that helps anyone who ever has a kidney stone. :)
 
Boy that sounds healthy. I've had a kidney stone in the past and let me tell ya, it's about as painful as it gets. Fortunately I was able to pass it (by urination) relatively soon after I discovered one had formed.
 
I've never had one, but so help me God, if I ever do have to deal with one, I'd opt to have the doctors rip me open and pull it out. Passing it by urination sounds like all kinds of unpleasant.
 
i've had 5, and let me tell you, once they get past the 2 millimeter size, you are FUCKED.

of those 5, two have had to be surgically removed. i've had women come up to me during my times of pain and say, "i've given birth, and passed a kidney stone, and the kindey stone was more painful."

Although supposedly if you drink tons of water you're much less likely to get stones, so I'm not too worried.

And women don't have several-inch long dicks to pass it through. o my...
 
Yeah, one of my mom's patients (female) has had 2 children and said the kidney stones she'd had were more painful. It's kind of overlooked in the "really bad shit that can happen to you scale."

And relatively little caffeine. But I need my caffeine.

Really? No caffeine prevents kidney stones? That's awesome, as I almost never drink caffeine. Go me!
 
Uh, was this doctor wearing a grass skirt and a voodoo mask?

(By the way, my cousin, 18 years of age, had to have surgery to remove a stone just last week. It runs in his family, apparently.)

Color me skeptical; if this was at all true, he'd have patented a drug containing the nutritional contents of 6 cans of Coke and some baby food, marketed it, and made all sorts of money. Like dem said, chiropractors are not real doctors, and their knowledge of general physiology is, by way of comparison to an MD, extremely limited, to say nothing of their lack of pharmacological knowledge. Sure, it may have worked for someone he knows, but did he then administer this concoction to dozens of people to test its efficacy? Doubtful.


My dad had a kidney stone, and from the looks (and sounds) of it, it's incredibly painful. All of a sudden one night I hear him go to the bathroom across the hall and all of a sudden I hear him moaning, so I ask him if he's ok and he said he's throwing up and has piercing pains in his stomach. So we advised him to get to the hospital ASAP and it turned out that he had a stone. It runs in my family on his side, which is scary, because I used to drink a LOT of soda; my dad drinks nothing but water (for his whole life, not just since the stone), yet he still got one. He said it was the most painful thing he'd ever experienced, both when it was inside and when he eventually passed it. I've known of women, too, who've said that kidney/gall stones are worse than childbirth in terms of the severity of the pain. Very frightening. :P
 
From Dr Weil's homepage:

Since you have a history of kidney stones, be sure to drink lots of water and follow these dietary suggestions to reduce your risk of a recurrence:

* Avoid caffeine which seems to increase urinary calcium.
* DECREASE CONSUMPTION OF animal protein which increases the risk of stone formation.
* Limit your salt intake (salt increases urinary calcium excretion).
* Consume potassium and bran fiber in foods, not supplements, because both can reduce urinary levels of calcium.

I'm not too sure on the comparision to gall stones. Do they rate as high on the pain list as a kidney stone? I've had 4 or 5 gall stones and eventually a gangrenous gall bladder which was removed. Something like 5 trips to the ER last year; i'm 22 (21 then) and the doctors literally had no clue what was wrong with me. I actually stumbled across the gallbladder problem after a nurse reccomended going to see a gastro-ontologist, fucking day after my visit i was having surgery. Now, the gall bladder pain was fucking severe and it usually lasted about 8-15 hours each time; but a kidney stone-- a stone u pass through your dick-- I cannot imagine. X_x
 
"I'm not too sure on the comparision to gall stones."

I had my gall bladder removed when I was 12 sucked cause back then they did not have the nice little cuts they have today... I have a huge long scar now.

my gall stones where caused by Sickle Cell Anemia

can't compare the pain because Sickle Cell Pain is so much worst

Jam a ball point pen up your pee hole. Jam a spiked bat into the pen. Set the bat on fire. Swallow a few habanero peppers after you cut your tongue on an envelope. Jam a open can of Pepsi into your abdominal cavity through your belly button, and then shove some Pop Rocks in after it. You are now close enough to see the pain from passing kidney stones, if you happen to have the Hubble telescope handy.
 
My uncle told me cranberry juice helps too, for prevention. But he's a nephrologist, and has no formal training in back treatment.

You'll all of a sudden feel like you need to push a razor blade through your dick.

Depending on the severity or location, you'll notice blood in your urine. When the stone is "moving" around inside of you the pain is indescribable and completely debilitating. Basically, with a kidney stone... you just know.
