Kidney Stones Suck
#21745341 - 05/31/15 04:05 PM (8 years, 7 months ago) |
|
|
So I just spent my day in the ER for kidney stones. It started with a dull back ache that increasingly spread to the front left side of my abdomen. I wasn't going to go to the hospital at first because I have no insurance but I was getting increasingly worse to the point where I was throwing up and on the verge of passing out. Long story short, they gave me a CT scan, pumped me full of morphine and several hours later sent me home with a script. Kidney stones suck.
Anyone ever go through this?

I was about 6? Maybe younger, probably younger. Probably more like 4.
My mother passed a Kidney stone and was screaming bloody murder, and told me she was dying and all this other horrifying shit. Made me call 911, and when they asked for my address, I had to run outside and check what my address was. I remember being on the phone with the 911 operator just screaming "MY MOM IS DYING YOU HAVE TO SAVE HER" like multiple times. I spent probably like 5 minutes on the phone before they could calm me down enough to get my address and shit. It was a terrifying experience, and was pretty scary for sure.
That's my only experience of that though, so I'd imagine it hurts like a mother fucker if my mother thought she was dying, especially since she's given birth to like 7 kids.

Ouch!
Try and find a good source of pure cranberry juice (not that sugary shit) and drink it every so often, especially when you're feeling that ache... it does wonders for cleaning that system out.

They say it's comparable to giving birth.

I was waiting hours before they gave me the morphine too...I wanted to die.

My mom said it was worse, she said she'd rather give birth to all 7 kids in a row than pass another kidney stone..
That's probably not what you want to hear as you're waiting to pass a kidney stone... Sorry,

Oh yeah. I thought I was dieing. Woke my wife up to call the ambulance after steadily increasing levels of pain. I don't do that except under extreme duress. By which I mean I never did before. I really did think I was having a manifestation of cancer that would end me. They gave me one blast of morphine and asked what my pain level was. I said it is still pretty high and they gave me another and everything was alright. Oh yeah. Never did capture the stone. It isn't the stone that hurts it is the muscle cramps it cause in the ureter

I get them all the time. I was a farmer and now a miner. I passed at least 5 in January, but thankfully they were small enough. I had one get stuck bad once and had to wait a couple weeks to get it blasted with lithotripsy. I've had dozens of ct scans too. Drink lots of water!

does being a farmer or miner increase ur chances of kidney stones or something?

Yeah I don't know what caused this. I eat and drink better now than I have my entire life. They say it's hereditary and both sides of my family are prone to these. I only drink water and eat fairly healthy.

It was the worst pain in my life. Not even close. I have no idea what passif is talking about.
The pain is not from irritation by the stone. The irritation causes muscle contractions which are the pain source. Essentially a charlie horse in your ureter. And I can assure everyone that it is awesome pain. I never did find a stone

I have them,
Lemon aid, cranberry and lots of water each day to flush your kidneys. I gave up soft drinks.
I got some of mine blasted with a Lithotripsy. Made me feel a lot better.
I get awesome pain killers from my Doc for the pain though.

Definitely not memes, my high school friend drinks multiple mountian dew soda's a day, like 5 or 6 a day sometimes (used to, anyways) and he also smokes weed, and dabs like a fucking mad man, I'm talking smokes a half gram a day of dabs, and he had a kidney stone while we were in high school...
Granted he was absolutely abusive to his body at that time, but still, the ridiculous amount of weed he smokes didn't help.

Are you also a white, american male?
Because your chances of developing kidney stones just increased if you are.
On the bright side, they'll give you some nice pain killers for kidney stones...
On the bad side, a sharp, jagged, rock of calcium is going to come out of your dick hole.
I've been terrified of kidney stones since I thought my mother was dying. We got two of them, if one of my kidneys ever fucking pulls that mutiny shit I'm selling it on the black market.

You people are not paying attention. It isn't from the rock going out your dick. Oft times it dissolves before then. Your ureters are muscular ducts. Think arteries vs veins. You don't have a pulse because of your heart. It is because your artery is muscularly pulsing in synch with your heart. Arteries are muscles and so are ureters. They are not just empty tubes that stuff flows through. The pain of a kidney stone is not directly from the rock. It is from the muscle spasm in your ureter that it causes.. Like I said, as far as I know I never passed my stone. They had me pee in a strainer for a fdew days because they wanted to analyze it but I know why I got it. I do not eat Rolaids like candy any more

The first medicine they gave me in IV didn't work AT ALL so they had to give me morphine. I felt much better after that. I only got 15 5mg norcos to go home with which I guess is okay but I wish I would have got something stronger.

Even if that's true, I still have an irrational fear of solid objects coming out of my penis.
I googled world's largest kidney stone, and I wish I didnt.

Do you take vitamins?
Especially if they're designed specifically for females, they're loaded with more calcium then your body can use, so they actually cause more harm than good in the body.

You can just get them, there's really no telling. I remember my friends mom badgering me about drinking coffee when I was like 14. She would always bitch and say you'll have kidney stones in a few years...I think they proved the opposite recently with caffeine and kidney stones.

I started getting them recently. I have my 5th one inside me now. Every once in a while I can feel it pinching. I feel like I'm a ticking time bomb waiting for it to start moving. Last time I had one I took some Uvi Ursi and the pain was gone within 24 hours, but that may have been a coincidence too. I've been taking them every other week anyways.
I hope you don't get anymore. Its the worst pain ever. They usually give me 4mg IV dilaudid and that is barley enough to make it bareable.

Yeah it sucks pretty bad. The first one was about 7mm and I was tripping on acid when it decided to come out. The last one was on and off pain for over two weeks. I see a urologist this week so maybe they can help me.

Hmmm. I try to stay hydrated. There are actually three different types of stones that it could be. Calcium oxalate which is a salt found in certain foods which combines with the calcium and is the most common, calcium phosphate which is when the pH in your pee is too high from too much calcium, or uric acid stones when the pH is too low and purines build up from animal proteins. interesting...

I actually don't mind them much anymore. I accepted it years ago. Fresh lemon juice is what kicks them into my ureter, so all I have to do is drink lemon juice once a week or even just once a month. For some reason though I always forget to drink lemon juice for a year or two. They don't hurt nearly as bad as broken ribs.

I broke ribs and a vertebrate at the same time.
I can't confirm that it hurts more than a kidney stone, but I can confirm that it broke me as a man, I was no longer a man after that injury, I was a literal puddle of bitch.
Damaged my kidneys too, pissed out a bit of blood in the hospital as well, but at that point I was so fucked on morphine I didn't care, they shot me with some morphine in the ambulance, then in the hospital, and then hooked me with the clicker afterwards.
They also started a year long opiate addiction.

I can assure you that I would take ten broken ribs over another kidney stone. It isn't even close.

It does sound a little given the title: "Climate change causes more kidney stones, says Scientists". But it makes valid sense. The less urine you are expelling, the more concentrated that urine would be of minerals such as calcium.

I've never broken a bone either, which is pretty amazing considering all the shit I did, but I will still take them over what the stone was like. Screaming is not inappropriate.

i have heard they are miserable. was reading about them the other day for some reason and found that cranberry juice wasnt proven to do much of anything for them, as is common belief. also that vitamin c supplements can contribute to stones if you take them a lot for no reason. I only drink water and beer occasionally, and vitamins after drinking. I hope I or anyone else never has to experience them.
i also knew some people who were so ridden with chronic pain that they were heavily scripted with morphine or oxycontin. they said it helped with the pain but they were pretty much walking zombies with little reason to live. its really sad what pain can do to a person.

Even if that's true, I still have an irrational fear of solid objects coming out of my penis.
I googled world's largest kidney stone, and I wish I didnt.

HOLY SHIT. That had to develop in a coma patient or something. There's no way that could develop in a anybody who was anywhere near conscious. There are supposed to be internal organs there. That fucking stone reminds the movie aliens, except it's more horrifying.
On another less scary note, if you're not peeing a light yellow color, then you're not hydrated enough. Allegedly dehydration is one of the bigger factors in having these things form. I'd keep some morphine around just in case that doesn't actually help though.

Thanks guys. I passed it yesterday I believe because I feel a lot better today.
And I believe cranberry juice is good for bladder infections and urinary tract infections caused by bacteria. Kidney stones are much different as the problem starts in the kidneys and by the time it even enters the bladder most of the pain is gone. So it's no wonder that cranberry juice doesn't work because it's a completely different condition.

Not even a remote approximation. We are talking 9.9 pain here. You have no fucking idea what it is. If I was a screamer I would have been screaming. The pain was awesome beyond measure. And it doesn't involve your dick, as can be made quite clear by the fact that sugar tits also got one.

You are not the first to call me sugar tits 
It was so much pain I couldn't even comprehend what to do with myself. I was just trying to keep from passing out and puking. I'm just glad I had someone there to drive me to the hospital.

Just had a 4mm get lodged inbetween the kidney and bladder. I threw up 3 times, blackout on the way to the er, morphine didnt even numb the pain so they gave me dilaudid on top of the morphine. Breaking bones, getting drop kicked in the balls, being clotheslined off a quad by a steel cable at 60mph, and having my intestines bleed from inflamation caused by an autoimmune disorder i have were nothing compared to what i experienced today.
I finally stopped pissing blood and have taken 17.5mg of hydrocodone in the past 6hrs of being at home.
This is hell...
