Ooh those buggers hurt!! With mine they didnβt operate,had lots of small ones(theyβre the ones that cause the grief) and 2 big buggers..My old mum had them too they broke hers up with ultrasound but they donβt seem keen to do that nowadays.
look on the bright side, they wonβt kill you but the pain you get might make you wish they did

Well I'm home and have the answer.... ...which is to eat more salads and give the pork belly a miss? Kidney stones is the other lot you don't want - caused by eating lots of cheese and drinking too much milk. A couple of simple things that modern medicine can deal with... when the surgeries / health centres / hospitals are open!

Well, itβs best to know a diagnosis, is there a plan of attack? Sonic attack? Smash it with sound waves. I passed a bladder stone the size of an orange pip a few years back. Who winced at that then! You can uncross your legs now.
