Check out my KIDNEY STONE pic

[Joe_Steeler]

I've heard from doctors and ER nurses the pain is quite comparable as having birth. Its all relative: baby coming out of swollen "you know" and a rocky and sharp edgy fucker ripping the very small duct between the kidney and the bladder.
Pissing blood is not cool. But he demerol IV drip is very very soothing.

is the pain localized to your lower abdomen? I guess the question is, how do you know it's a kidney stone? just super debilitating pain all at once in your body trunk area?

I want to know in case it ever happens to me.

In my case it was from the back (i.e. kidney area) to the frontal abdomen area. Localized to the side of the affected kidney.
I would describe my pain as a mix between a .45 cal gunshot wound and someone driving a rusty blunt 4/0 structural steel rebar rod on my side.

I colapsed towards that side nuclear cramp style and almost passed out it was so bad.

* I am not superman or a pussy, but let's put it this way. I fell playing baseball and completely broke both bones on might right forearm and I walked home, while grabbing the arm, for 1/2 a mile to wake up my mother and tell her to take me to the hospital. I was 13 years old. A compound fractrure that almost put me in the OR if they couldn't set them on the first try.

* I dislocated three fingers (in three separate occasions) kinda like a "L" looking deal and just pulled them out, set them taped them and kept playing basketball.

* While riding a skateboard barefoot, yes what a dumbass, I let my big toe down and proceeded to peel the skin off the frong on the toe back like a banana. I could see the bone. Wrapped my t-shirt around it soaked in blood so my uncle could take me to the hopital to get stitched up.

NONE of those accidents even compared wih the pain of my biggest kidney stone. That thing brought me to tears and to my knees, literally. When I saw the x-ray where they inject that barium or whatever the hell it is, to see (paint) the urinary tract and the obstruction. I saw what looked like a small bean coming down a capillar tube I knew I was fucked.

Gotta say the nurses hooked me up good with demerol and some other good shit. I felt like hendrix at woodstock.

Damn Scott, you should have gotten out the old magic marker and presented this specimen as "BIG RED!" :ROTF:

[SEEGERMANY]

I must concur with Joe. I've broken both arms, both legs, all my fingers and toes multiple times, and even had my right arm cut in half. Nothing compares to the pain of shit taking place involving internal organs. Hell, I had shingles back in the mid 1980's and it hurt so bad, I could have easily ate a bullet.

ouch. glad your ok. it looks like you pushed a fruity pebble cereal nugget out of your hose... bad time for jokes but hey that is what it looks like.... or one of the chcklets rocks gum things that comes in a pouch...

Scott, dude, welcome to the club! Have had 9 of them over the past 18 years. Unreal pain. Seemed to have have solved them by being a water fiend and NEVER drinking any coke (Too much calcium carbonate). As far as pictures, I thought I was the only one twisted enough to photograph it!

Here's my last one, a nice healthy 1.5 cm model.

[StukaJU87]

1.5 cm? OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mine was only 3 or 4mm.

Did they operate to get yours out? I could not imagine passing that boulder.

[Firebird V]

ok. mine has officially just crawled way inside of me. u poor bastard.

I am all too familiar w/the k-stone blues. As a spinal cord injury patient I constantly develop and pass them. At best it's like pissing a sand storm. At worst it's like trying to pass a saw blade as it rotates backwards. I have to self cath fairly frequently so I kinda open the passage for a slightly less painful "delivery." But the worst of the pain is always before it hits the bladder. Kinda like having 12 of your worst enemies take turns kicking you in the nuts repeatedly.

I am both sympathetic and amazed. I've seen GALL STONES smaller than that one. Dude! WOW!! Fuck That & OWWWW!!!! That's gonna leave a mark. BTW, was it a boy or a girl?

DUDE! How did this thing get out? It must've been horrible.

Hendrix played the day after Woodstock (the whole show ran late) at 8 or 9 in the morning. I don't think he was messed up. Sorry to be a nitpicker. Maybe you felt like Michael Schenker over the last few months?

Oooohhh That's nice..it's dark!!

My daddy passes a pee boulder every week, but his look kinda beige..some are the size of a rice crispy. He's going to make a necklace for me, which is cool.

His weenie must be all reamed out....he pud is like a pez dispenser.

I wrote a a song for him with grunt vocals called "Passing the Stone"..a real tear jerker.

[horns666]

My dad says that is the worst pain there is..

I inherited his arthritis..I can't wait to give birth to my first pee rock!!!

I dunno, I had to get another molar pulled in a emergency..it was a real zinger..oragel, 7 1000MG vicodin..nuthin' helped!

that was bad..I'm collecting my molars too..they'll look nice with my dad's pee rocks. It'll be a family heirloom.
