Yes, vinegar or lemon juice changes the ph in the kidneys which helps the oxalate pass through without hanging-up and building stones. The downside is you should use a straw to drink the mix because of the corrosiveness to your teeth enamel. I use a prescription fluoride toothpaste and get a fluoride treatment every 6 months by my dentist to combat this from damaging my teeth.

I haven’t passed it yet, I’ve always been lucky with just having one at a time, the better drugs you can’t get anymore because of people abusing them, I’ve had a lot of stress with bad bouts of gout, so both of those could be the cause of this, the cider vinegar is something I’m going to explore, a neighbor has been taking it for years and I’m becoming a believer.

Passed one in ER. X-ray showed a bunch. Friend said drink cranberry juice it dissolves them. Several years later after another X-ray Dr. said there weren’t any. I take a cranberry capsule every day and stone free!

If the capsule works that might be a very real choice I can’t stand to drink the juice.

Bob , been there done that . I jump up and down to get them moving , sounds dumb but works for me .

I was lucky once I was combining corn and the old Massey has a vibration to it and that was by far the easiest one to pass, this keeps up and I may have to get the dozer out and drive it around just for the vibration.

I passed one and it feels like I’m working on two more.

Hope you can get cleaned out,last Friday was a busy night and there are more to come

That looks painful, my one was about the size of a poppy seed, black, and tear drop shape, I really was expecting a 20 pound bowling ball.

Not fun,hope I can get cleaned out this week,still feel blockage at times so I know there are more to come.The 3 times I've had them it seems to take about 3 weeks to get them all out so the end is coming soon I hope!

Agree with this.... I'm at 85 and counting.

Oxy is way better Hydrocodone is fair at best for relief 35 and counting over almost 3 year period

Go to Mayo and get their current procedure . .never controll your bladder again ,Go home and pull the stent yoursel . SOB i will suffer it out next time

Good luck

My neighbor said a Dr said off the record, drink a case of beer

They’re past I still have pain in the kidneys but that normal I’ll be fighting the inflammation for a couple weeks now, I’ve heard about the beer from a friend also the worst part is it doesn’t react well with the pain pills, and I’m afraid if one sticks and I end up at the hospital they wouldn’t give me any stronger pain medication.

Good deal. Hope you feel better soon!

Glad to hear that,I think I might be done with them here as well 22 this time.

Only had three but they were all about that poppy seed size.
