But I can’t imagine that that experience would be worse than watching a Clemson baseball game with the sad sack Beechers and whiners we have here on Tigernet. Seriously shut the hale up until the game is over!

I had a guy that worked for me that got 2 to 3 stones every year. It is no where close to the same.

Some of our games have been agony but I think I would trade a win to avoid another stone- had two and they were more painful than getting shot!

I agree Clover. I'm up to a couple dozen now along with one trip to lithotripsy and stint for flow because it was too big to pass. Most were small and after the initial pain they just traveled through the system. But for the 1/2 dozen or so that caused all the pain, it would have been worth trading a win for them to just go away. No other pain (so far) in my life like it.

Had a stone when I was 15. Couldn’t pass so they went through my ##### to get it. Ouch! Had another when I was 25. It got one inch out of the kidney and was stuck in the tube. This was way before pulverizing them so they did surgery. Double ouch! That was 1974 three weeks before my wedding. None since then and I am now 78 and thankful.

years old now, so the fact that I emember the pain like it was yesterday ought to tell anyone how painful one of those suckers is.

Suffered for three days, then when that thing finally plinked out, had to use a magnifying glass to examine it. It looked like a piece of black dirt to the nekid eye. With the magnifying glass, it was a spiny, razor sharp mini cockleburr looking thingy. Don't know why I got it, and thankfully, have never had another one. VERY thankfully.

I had one when I was 38 yrs old about 20 years ago.. I had a attack put me in the ER for about 16 hours. I couldnt pass it , 7mm in size , i believe it has to be smaller then 5mm...Then I carried it for 2 weeks on pain meds until a scheduled surgery required lithotomy or lithotripsy whatever it's called , where they send shock waves through the kidney area.. then I spent about 3-5 days pissing in a filter cup. Took it back to my urologist and they weighed it up or sized it up so they knew we got it all out... a memorable experience to say the lease....

Had a handful. You wouldn’t believe what pain a sesame seed shaped like a buzz saw can bring you! It’s pretty awful
