    I just started getting pains in the kidney after switching to mostly salads in meals. Where oxalates?

      I don’t think that stones form so quickly. Maybe it’s time to get some tests?

  I have gotten kidney stones frequently since 2006

  Cut out tea, nuts, potatoes, chocolate, whole grains, carrots, spinach, and everything else. Keep my sodium around 1500mg/day

  I still form them prolifically

  I had a 2cm stone back in March that they tried blasting and ended up getting chunks of the stone stuck between the stent and the wall of my ureter. After keeping the stent in for 3 months my urologist gave up and another one picked me up. When he went in to laser the stones, he had to laser chunks that had adhered to the stent before he could get it out

  They shockwaved my other side last month and got the newer stent out and had my follow up today and there’s two more little ones on the left side already forming up

  Next step is an endocrinologist

    What’s your oxalate and protein intake like?

    • stoned_ape@lemmy.world ⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Usually less than 100g a day for protein. I stay as far away from oxalates as possible I would be surprised if I have 10mg/day. I know 40mg/day is considered low oxalate.

    Odd recommendation from a friend’s doctor after said friend passed a stone: drink a beer a day. He said lemons helped (lemonade, lemons in tea) but the beer was 100% from what the doc had seen. And no, I don’t know why or what kind.

      Nah my kidneys are just fucked actually, they don’t process calcium good so a lot of it just sits around until I piss it out. I take meds but they only help so much
