One Word: Camelbak Just got one, cheap $14, thought it would be a PITA and I wouldn't like it figured at that price I would be a cheap experiment, best damn money I spent! I'll buy a fancier one now. Even if you have a cooler handy with Gatoraid, because you have to go to the cooler, stop what your doing & get a drink, you still push yourself to the limit of dehydration. With a Camelbak, you keep doing what your doing, you're constantly drinking, it's not affecting your activity or productivity. You stay hydrated and more productive as well. Less fatigue. Can't say enough good things about it. Mine holds 1.5L, that's 3/4 of a big bottle of gatoraide. I can go 4 hours in the heat before refilling. Give it a try. |

Update:
I went to the ER for my last attack, after I stopped processing water. I was drinking it but it wasn't going anywhere. I ended up puking it back up. Yes, that's time for the ER visit. Three days out of work before I could come back. I'm getting a pair of stents installed soon. They're basically tubes that run from the kidneys to the bladder, through the ureters. They will be installed through an existing hole, not through a new one. You know which hole they will be using.  Under general anaesthesia. Fortunately. As soon as they're in, I get lithotripsy on one kidney. Two weeks for the pulverized stones to exit. Then lithotripsy on the other kidney. (Under general anaesthesia.) Two weeks for those pulverized stones to exit. Then they go back in under general anaesthesia and remove the stents. That's the plan. I just want them to do it now, get it done and over with. I will be having the procedure videotaped. Not much to see from the outside but they will be using a fluoroscope for top-down views and also the installation tools have little cameras on them for a view from the inside. CJ |

Yeah, an inside view from muzzle to chamber. I don't know if I want to see what his locking lugs look like though.

Been there done that about thirty times or so. I feel your pain. My last x-ray showed about thirty more. I look like I've been shot with birdshot.

I've got twenty. Eleven in the right, nine in the left.
Lithotripsy will take 'em all out. I can avoid making more if I play my cards right. CJ |

DEAR GOD!!!
The very thought of another kidney stone is cause for me to run and hide under the bed. I have never been in so much pain in my life when I had mine.  I take that back...I would like to see va_dinger have one, just once
