Kidney Stones and the way I deal with them

My Name is Scott and I am 31 years old, as of April 06, 2009 I passed my 22nd Kidney Stone. I have been growing kidney stones since I was 18 years old (thanks Dad). I have started this blog to help myself and other deal with their battle with kidney stones. I thought it would be pretty interesting to do my own studies on how many Kidney Stones my body produces in my life time.

I will be talking about my pain and my suffering and the joys of finally passing the stones to everyone that cares to read about them. I will post photos of the final stone just so everyone can see, if you have ever passed one you will understand why it is such a joy and a appolishment to finally get rid of your stone.

As of right now I am cleaned out "No Stones". Last year I had 3 lithotripsy and I also passed two on my own. So far this year I have only passed one.

Here it is #22 - 04/06/2009

Yes it is sad but true, I try to catch and keep everyone that I have passed. But sadly I misplaced my jar that I had for over 10 years so I had to start a new one this past year. I like to compare then to a pencil just so people can see just how large or small they really are.
