Nina~Kidney stones anyone?

[Guest guest]

Nina,

I haven't had kidney stones, but I have had about 4 severe kidney infections

in the last year. I never get any symptoms, just all of the sudden burning and

blood in urine. I've been lucky not to have kidney stones. I remember shortly

after my fiance and I moved in together and I was out back mowing the lawn. He

was in the shower upstairs with the window open. I turned the mower off and

hears him screaming! I thought he'd fallen and broke something so I ran

upstairs. There he was in all his glory in the shower holding out his hand. I

asked him wtf the screaming was about and he showed me the stone. I laugh to

this day that he was standing in the shower peeing in hs hand...lmao! But I

know they are severely painful.

I have a good friend that has been on dialysis for almost 10 years. She's had

kidney problems since she was a kid. Hopefully she will be getting a transplant

soon. She goes tot he Mayo Clininc in sdale, AZ next week for testing.

I get a-symptomatic UTIs that progress into kidney infections bfeore i

feel anything then suddenly i have a 104 temp(and i have a 97.2 temp

on a regular, daily, basis. all the time.. so at 104 i wanna

dieeeeee)..... so yea. i hear you there..

Im glad he managed to get it out quickly. Alot of times they bounce

around and crawl their way out. this ones been trying to pass for

about two days, and hubbys on travel for work so im home with three

kids. yea, a hurricanes hit my house by the looks of it. Lol.

Its more common for men to get them than women but im one gal that

makes them on a regular basis.. Something about how my body absorbs

calcium. I always wonder if its connected to our familys genetic

tenency towards very early osteoperosis... My mom was diagnosed

osteoperotic at like 45 or something.. has it in her spine.. .. and

my stones are calcium based.. most are so thats not uncommon but..

just wonder.

But yea they hurt. My 5yo popped me in the kidney yesterday on

accident and i literally blacked out. Thankfully my mom was around, i

wasnt at home by myself or anything.. and i have a very high pain

tolerance so when i black out from pain.. not usually good.

anyways im rambling now, id just been wondering if many of us got

this. Just a curiosity type thing.
