Feels somewhat constipated, but... definitely not. Lower pelvic pain. I feel like I'm trying to give birth to a bowling ball...
Sound right?

I just had a huge pain in the lower rt abdomen...excruciating pain. I thought my appendix had burst. No feeling of constipation.
-
Had a small one about 20 years ago... Yesterday evening was pretty rough, feeling somewhat on the downslope side, I hope.
I don't think it is a tumor.
-
Your describing the same pain when I had a stuck stone in Aug 2018. 2 trips to the ER and 1 emergency surgery to install a catheter and another one 3 weeks later to get the stone out. Killed my bear hunt that year, also pissing blood for 3 weeks sucked too.
-
Not that bad, I hope...
Honestly, I don't understand my coworkers who insist on doctor visits when they have a minor scratch... This was pretty painful, but it... passed...

can you pee? Usual flow, or not?
-
Seemed somewhat constricted about 3am, but fine since. Lower back/lower ab/pelvic pain mostly gone...
Why does this sort of stuff always happen on my days off from work?

The one and only time I had one I couldn't get much out, because the stone was working it's way down through the plumbing. Actually ended up in the pee cup in the ER. So I got off easy.
-
Was planning on implementing pan and strainer approach toward dawn, but... Yeah, now just a mild aftermath. Slight technicolor, gonna chew some vitamin c... My bud Wilson said that seemed to help...
-
Mine (most all of the 18) always hit at some ungodly hour of the morning/late evening.
-
Sounds like something I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Does anyone know what causes them or how to avoid them? I've heard staying hydrated helps.
-
Take plenty of diHydrogen-O.
But keep in mind that it might be frowned upon, because Donald Trump takes multiple grams of it every day as part of his health program.
-
Drink fewer carbonated drinks/soda for uric acid stones and cut back on dairy if calcium stones.
-
Could be the Covid. Did you get the vax? Or meet in close contact with someone who has the Kung-pow Bat flu? Do you now know anyone who has, may have had, or is considering getting a vaccine of any type, including. but not limited to Covid, flu, diphtheria, measles, rubella, Steak and Shake, Taco Bell, polio, shingles, or Legionaries?
If so, you may be entitled to compensation.
-
Hope it passed man. Pissing blood and excruciating pain is no fun at all. Drink lots of water and thank the gods you're hung like a horse, makes passing the damned things easier.
-
Technicolor is mostly gone, so the urea will be marketable.
Unless, of course, this is a side effect of the covids, and you need to put a mask over the exhaust stack...

Came across this. Wonder if there's anything to it?
Our findings show that going from, for example, one cup a day to 1.5 cups per day, reduces the risk of kidney stones by 40 percent,” said co-author of the study, Susanna C. Larsson, PhD, Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm. “Our findings strongly suggest that regular coffee consumption reduces the risk of kidney stone formation.”
New Study Supports Coffee and Caffeine Can Reduce Kidney Stones Risk

I've never had a stone, that I know of, while my brother who never drinks coffee has had several.
-
If the coffee thing is true, I should've been bulletproof. I existed on coffee and cigarettes for a very long time.
-
I've cut down a little since earlier this year my qua... er... doctor was sort of disturbed that my blood pressure was...
How should I describe it?
I shall quote.
"Well, damn... This is odd... Let's do this again. Holy... Okay, let's try that again... Damn. Okay, we've got a bunch of pills you need to take EVERY day."

I drink mine straight black and never smoked
-
I should be golden on the kidney stone front, then.
I watched my Dad suffer with the damned things. Not something I ever want to deal with.
-
I've heard that excessive soda consumption can lead to stones, although I don't know the mechanism. I hadn't heard about calcium but it makes sense. The coffee study mentions 1 to 1.5 cups per day. More in this case is not necessarily better . . . .
-
Have your house water checked! I had friend that kept getting kidney stones, turns out the well water had a high mineral count.
He lived in Arizona, so he was always drinking water to stay hydrated. It was also, great tasting water.

Well. I should be golden then.
-
I'm not endorsing what is said at the coffee/stones link just put it up for discussion.
But yeah, if true I'm golden too although bare in mind it says 40% not 100%
-
The reason they have ya catch the stone in that funnel/filter thing is to analyze it to see if it is a calcium or uric acid stone.

The stone, 8mm, is to the left, the rest are blood clots. At 10mm, they either blast them with sound or cut them out.
