Kidney Stones, et al.

To whomever designed the kidney, I have a bone to pick with you.  I've spent two of the past four nights in the Hospital dealing with kidney stones.  Nasty thing is that the pain medication that usually dulls it well enough has done nothing with these new nasty sized pearls.  Now that they know what they are made up (mostly calcium), I have to change the whole way I eat, or more appropriately, drink.  I've been told to give up all milk products, colas and tea.  I guess I have to drink water...

Well, enough of my griping.

That sucks dude .. does that also mean no more coffee?

That sucks! How are you going to do it when the client provides free soft drinks? I'm not sure I could do it. But then again, if I had something of that size working it's way towards the light of day through the same path, I'd probably eat raw sewage to make it go away.

what's your take on EntLib (Data) ?

Be careful about avoiding calcium. I got the same advice as you a couple years ago, but I started getting painful leg cramps and I had to resume calcium.

I drink a lot of water now. I think this helps a lot. It reduces the particulates in urine.

Good Luck!
