I once had this motorcycle - it was a Honda Rebel 350 street bike.
Anyway, there was a specific summer where I was vehicle poor and the only thing I had was this motorcycle to get back and forth to work on. I would ride this bike 100 miles round trip every day until I got the money to fix my truck.
The bike had a nice seat - meant to fit a fata$$ such as mine but the front on the bike was light and I had to beard down on the handle bars while going around high-speed curves.
Day in and day out, every day. And then it happened. The lower back aches started to creep in and got worse during the nights.
Ever hear a grown man cry in the middle of the night?
Went to the doctor. Apparently, the vibration from riding the bike had loosened several kidney stones and they began to travel.
I was lucky (or so I was told) that the stones were small enough for me to pass them through.
I didn't know much about such things, but I got enough of the drift to know that meant I was gonna shoot'em outta my pi$$hole.
Yeah. It hurts.

I got a scan today, it's definitely a stone. 6 mm. Oddly enough don't have any pain at this moment. But I can kinda feel the stone there, not sure if that is psychosomatic or what.

Phew ain't gonna fun when the pain really starts to kick in. they already got me a urologist appointment for today to assess my options.

I would recommend that you pass them naturally if you can.

The only time they suggest surgery is if they're too big to pass.

I think there are times when they let the patient choose (but, there's no sense in that considering emotions driven with pain).

Kidneys will heal but there's no sense in having them un-necessarily opened.

Busted in smaller pieces by using sound....?

I am a wuss when it comes to pain anticipation. The urologist said I could either try to let it pass on its own, or get a lithotripsy, which is when they break it up with shockwaves, which isn't a delicate procedure either. 6mm is right over the threshold of whether it will pass on its own without diffculty, so there is a chance I can't pass it, and that's not a chance I want to take.

I told the urologist, whatever will cause me the least pain. So a litotripsy on Wednesday 😅

When I think of this procedure, I think of the first 30 seconds of the following -

Really? Wait til they dig in with their teeth like Tyson did to Holem's ear!
You have my regards either way. All you can do is grin and bear it until the ride is over. Meanwhile...."Olive Oil." A tablespoon every 4 to 6 hours. That's just my suggestion to help ya out.

There is this stuff called Azo that I plan on taking after the procedure to help with that. I think it's supposed to numb the urinary tract.

You know my old lady has had kidney stones and they just give her a shot of morphine and they fall right out. Apparently the pain of trying to pass them makes you tighten up down there so they can't come out. If you get enough opium in your system you relax and the problem takes care of itself. ****Shit for what the hospital charged me I could have hooked her up with some stronger dope for WAAAAY less. Shhhh don't tell her that.

It's the nights that mostly got me. Hang in there - let the meds do their job.

There is this stuff called Azo that I plan on taking after the procedure to help with that. I think it's supposed to numb the urinary tract.

After the procedure?
I recommended the Olive Oil as a preliminary to your procedure.... Bottom line - you're still gonna pi$$ them stones out....and just because they're small isn't going to mean they won't hurt as they continue to work their way out.
The olive oil will saturate the stones in your kidneys and will lubricate the interior walls of your urinary tract....
Just saying.....
Meanwhile, the name of the game is to survive the ride.

I used to work for a guy for about 15 years. One time we were at a restaurant and he went to the bathroom. He came back and he was crying and I asked him if his wife died or something. He set this little white crystal on the table and said it was a kidney stone that he had just passed. That was a tough old man there...

You know they have lasers now that can break them up inside of you so they are smaller and easier to pass. A friend of mine had that done too.

So far so good. The pain should be easing away over the next few days.

They make cat food for my cat that is a higher acidity than normal food. It is designed to break down the formation of crystals and stones......

For you? They're giving you pain meds and just making you pass them naturally...


....See a vet.
