Though I think it is from stress. My DD has been having stomach pain for over a week now. We thought it was her ulcer acting up again. Well she started running a fever and having sharp pains on her lower right side and back with nausia, I got her into the Dr. yesterday and they did the usual blood work and a ultra sound. Her CBC was out of wack but the ultra sound showed nothing wrong so they did a CAT Scan and found a stone in her kidney on the right side. We see a Urologist on Monday to see what they think should be done. She is on pain pills and they knock her out. I guess that is a good thing.

Joyce had 3 kidney stones, OMG she was so sick. The doc said if she didn't pass them he would zap them. He gave her I think 5 days to pass. I read all about them and it said to drink red clover tea, you get it in the health food store. The red clover tea brakes up the stones so that there are easier to pass. I had her drink about 3-4 mugs a day. 2 days later she went back to the doc and 1 stone was gone. 2 days later she went back to the doc and nothing was there the stones were gone. Why don't you get red clover tea and see if that doesn't help. I know it will and my the time Monday comes she won't need to go to a urologist. TRUST ME IT WORKS>>>>>>>

Just as a side note kidney stones are made up of uric acid which is what makes the joints swell with rheumotoid arthistis. If you get kidney stones at an early age you have a build up of uric acid and arthisitis is in your future. How do I know this?????? My granny was a guinea pig for the Arthisitis Foundation at New York Hospital many years ago and they had her take expermintal drugs. My granny is in medial books, pictures and all. The drug was allopurinol lowers uric acid levels.................and that is you medical lesson for the day,

Wish I had known about that I had to have mine blasted and it wasn't very comfortable.

I'm afraid to get on the scale tomorrow. With all the traveling I have been doing and eating in other peoples homes. I've way over eaten.

I was just at my Dads he had part of his colan removed last yr.Cancer. But they just gave him a good bill of health. I'm very happy.
:-D
