I've not heard that anatomical term, where, exactly, are located one's "schmoopies", and can they be reattached once they have been frozen off?

oooo i had one too, and i agree, ill take the kid any day. my doc told me to drink a lot of water. most stones are formed from too much calcium, which collects as flakes in the kidneys.. then they bond together to form a stone, and well, you know how that goes!! or doesnt. since i started drinking more water, i havent had a problem.....

Yeah, I was pretty darned curious about the schmoopies too. Did they give them to you in a glass jar to take home with you? Drink LOTS of water - the answer to all life's ills - and feel better soon. Love, R xxx

I never would have thought that Wang Chung could have been incorporated into a story about kidney stones, but you certainly managed it with grace and dignity. Bravo, Ms. Cigar. You may take your bow to your adoring crowd. Or is it just me that is impressed with this reference? If that's the case, just bow somewhere in the general direction of Jersey, because I'm applauding.

Yes, those damn stones hurt like hell. I really though I was dying with the pain. Got to the doctor's no doctor there, the nurse had no idea what was wrong and I had to wait half an hour for the doctor to arrive. Spent most of that time literally rolling on the floor in agony. Doctor came and straight away suggested renal colic and the fact that it was consistent with a stone. He offered me pain relief and I opted for Pethidine. He just got the damn stuff in the syringe and was gonna stick it in my arm, when the pain completely disappeared and the stone (more like sludge actually) passed. Yes, the only way to avoid them is to drink plenty of water as it's dehydration (not enough fluid to keep calcium and oxalate dissolved) that gives cause to these nasty little accretions.
