You know those old sandwich board signs like you see people wearing in depression era news clips? Wear marshall cabinets like that and dime a 100w amp. Play Too rolling Stoned, Like a Rolling Stone, and Bitch by the Stones.

It will come out.. oh yeah, someone is gettin' a black eye, but still.

Rand, it's been nice to share pain space with ya buddy. Hope you feel better.

Miles' home-made lithotriptor. Very creative! Now you have to adapt it for underwater use, for better acoustic coupling to the area of interest.

Bob S's idea - all very good but how do the oil get to ureters/urethra for stone passage? Half a pint of olive oil sounds like a recipe for a long bout of hershey squirts.

The apple juice olive oil thing is supposedly for liver and gall stones, you don't pee oil. Malic acid should help with kidney stones as well though.

I wish I still had the old gall bladder, it's been downhill healthwise since they yanked it out.

Alright another website quotes this:

Dietary factors that increase the risk of stone formation include low fluid intake and high dietary intake of animal protein, sodium, refined sugars, fructose and high fructose corn syrup, oxalate, grapefruit juice, and apple juice.

So I'd be careful with that apple juice. On the other hand it also said that lemonade and orange juice were good for preventing the stone formation at all.

Hope this helps..be well.
In theory, theory is the same as practice. In practice it's different.

I hear bad things about high fructose corn syrup all the time now.

Unfortunately, it seems to be in everything..... :x

Oh yeah. Remember carpal tunnel syndrome? The syndrome that disappeared in the data set?

I am wary of being wary. I am perfectly careless. :)

Carpal Tunnel?

Isn't that the one that goes under the Hudson?

My father had kidney stones too, and this was long before lithotripsy. He used to eat a lot of rhubarb as a dessert and the oxalic acid in it turns to calcium oxalate in the body, which is highly insoluble.

I don't eat rhubarb but I got one about 25 years ago, I think from drinking too much red wine. It's the closest I've come to the pain of childbirth (or so I'm told, and I would believe it).

They shot me full of Demerol and pumped my bladder up with so much IV saline solution I thought it would burst. Finally the stone moved out and...instant relief!!

My band buddy had them to until he changed his diet and watches what he drinks.

Demerol makes you forget you are alive. I love that stuff. I wish they made it in a roll-on applicator. That is what they give me when my migraines go defcom zero.
