Turns out I have a 3mm kidney stone. Both of my parents have had them, albeit at twice my age. Luckily I still have free full coverage medical at the VA hospital. Atleast I now have Vicoden.

Ya'll know that saying about how drinking too much energy drinks will give you kidney stones? It's true! 4 Amps a day for 3 months just landed my ass in the hospital with one of those little and oh so painful bastards.

Lots of liquid and chicken noodle soup... as a person who went through child birth, I dont envy you but I do sympathize.. Yes, I've heard that there are ingredients in energy drinks that speed up crystallization in your kidneys

Thank you. I must say, I've been in some serious pain before, but that takes the cake. I've heard it called the male version of child birth several times.

Wait 'til your nuts twist then tell me if you still feel that way. ;)

Good luck passing it, 3 mm is big regardless of the size of your manhood. Like Poodles said, wear a helmet in case you pass out. :) Also, be careful with the Vicodin. It will constipate you, and I don't mean a little, I mean like impacted. Drinks lots of fluids.

Damn! My bro drinks those all the time. (At least 3 a day.) What ever happened to eating fruits and veggies to get proper nutrients to get energy?

Hope your recovery is quick.

Yikes. I've had several, and I know what you are going through. 3mm is damn big - it's not the size of your manhood that matters, the pain comes from forcing the stone down the passage between your kidney and your bladder. Are they going to let it pass naturally? Or are you looking at sonic therapy or surgery?

The doctors said that the stone is almost to my bladder and that they usually don't operate unless it's 5mm or larger. Until I pass the stone, I have to piss through a strainer.

As for the Vicoden, I've been on it before when I had my shoulder surgeries.

Don't drink that shit just because its gross. Look at the nutrition facts and tell me you don't gag.


Only operate until its 5mm or bigger? Ask them how to make it bigger lol, thats what I would do.
