As you may or may not know, kidney stones are cited as one of the most painful medical occurrences known to medical science.

I've had two. I didn't pass them, they got stuck and they had to do a ureteroscopy.

I hope you get rid of this soon as possible, don't know if you've ever had one before or not but once you have one, your chances of developing another go up by 50%.

Caffeine has just recently been cited as a big cause for the formation of stones, I read that in a science magazine.

Hope you are all better soon.
