Well then...... an alternative method of cleansing the kidney's, is to consume a 6-pak of your favorite brewski's every 2 hours, followed by 16oz. of prune-juice .......... or vice-versa ..!! ... Oh yeah .. stay close to the "necessary-room" and be sure to have an excessive amount of arse-wipe handy too .. :laughing:..:laughing:
Geez Boo, I can see why you were a mechanic and not a doctor! Remember the creed, "Do No Harm"... Showing poor Ron a little sympathy wouldn't hurt your 'bedside' manner either! A kidney stone will put the toughest dude down. The same goes for gall stones..
I may be way off base here, but in my experience far more of my Southern buddies have experienced kidney stones than my Northern buddies. I wonder if it has anything to do with working in hot humid conditions and sweating profusely. Maybe the water down there has more calcium or something in it. Water up here is very "hard" with minerals, but maybe not the ones that cause stones.. I have always been amazed at how 'soft' the water is in Florida.
In any event, Ron - et al - who commonly experience the excruciating pain of Kidney stones, you have my sympathy. I have only had them twice and that was two more times than I needed.
Somebody needs to come up with something you can drink that will dissolve them in about five minutes that won't kill you! (I guess that leaves battery acid out.)
