[YEA]  09/14/2007: Rose from Cheyenne, Wyoming writes: "I just read all the comments yeas and nays and maybes. Need to do the 3 oz of extra virgin olive oil (VCO) and 3 oz of lemon juice and drink 10 oz water every hour, and take the oil and lemon juice THREE time s day. Drink large glass of water before bed and when you get up. And lay on the opposite side of kidney pain when you sleep. Worked for my son in 24 hours, no pain when it passed."

OLIVE OIL, HYDRANGA, MARSHMALLOW ROOT, LOW OXALATE DIET

[YEA]  07/04/2007: Gina from Seattle, Washington writes: "Olive Oil worked on my current kidney stones,, I mean I believe it flushed everything out and I also took Natures Sunshine, Hydranga,,4 capsules 3 times a day with food.any Hydranga brand will probably work. Also marshmellow root helps, plus a gallon a day of water with 1 cup lemon juice, that dissolved the stones in about a week..Hydranga dissolves all type of stones. But I also think that everyone out there should wikipedia, the LOW OXALATE DIET. It confirms what doctors are now saying. That foods high in Oxalate content cause kidney stones. This is from the University of Pittsburgh, Medical Center. I find that when I do eat the foods that are low in Oxalates I have no kidney pain. Luck to all"

PARSLEY TEA

[YEA]  11/11/2008: Brian from Collingdale, Pennsylvania writes: "Another potential cure.

My wife has had kidney stones since before I met her. The first one she had (with the excruciating pain!) was the size of a mothball and was on an xray and was diagnosed on a friday. They were going to do either a cat scan or an mri (I never remember) on the following monday to get a better ideal on what she had.

She went online and found multiple instances of parsley and parsley tea, so she made a big pot of tea using three bunches of flat leaf italian parsley. She drank it over the weekend and by monday she was pain free.
When she had the test done, they couldn't find anything and kept going back and forth between the xray and the latest scan and also asking her name to verify the xray. They told her that there must have been dirt on the xray and she asked what the pain was that she had then.

She then told them what she had done and after being confused and saying that it couldn't have helped, they basically told her that she was not telling the truth, Since then, she has had kidney stone type pain and each time she has done parsley tea and in a couple of days she is pain free.

And since a dozen years ago I had a kidney stone (8mm) and had lithotripsy to get rid of it, I will do parsley tea if I ever have kidney stone pain again I will drink a lot of parsley tea."

PICKLE JUICE FOR KIDNEY STONES

[YEA]  11/30/2007: Michelle Lentz from Pittsburgh, PA writes: "I was doing a lil research after days of having pain with my kidney stones and no pain killer was helping. And I read a blog/article saying to try Dill Pickle Juice. Well I did and believe it or not it worked. But I have been thinking about taking Apple Cider Vinegar for a few other problems that I have so this should help with the stones as well since the vinegar will desolve them the same way. Kill a FEW birds with one shot. lol"

I take 1/2 cup in am and within 2 hrs before bed."

PRESCRIPTIONS

[BETTER BUT NOT CURED]  06/26/2009: Tony from Henderson, Nevada, USA writes: "For all people who have ended up in the hospital with their stones, and received regular pain killers such as vicoden when they go home....THEY DON'T WORK FOR THAT KIND OF PAIN!. Tordol is a NSAID which is similar to ibuprophen, and it is a smooth muscle relaxent. Your ureter is controlled by smooth muscle. The muscles relaxes, the pressure on the stone is released, and the pain goes away. Not only that but the stone can then move more easily. The first thing I get when I go to the ER is a shot of Tordol. Then I get something for the nausea. Anyway, this drug is available in pill form and in generic. You can't get a lot of it cause its hard on the stomach and can be hard on the kidneys if you have kidney disease, but it works better for me than any narcotic ever has. But you usually don't need more than a few days worth anyway. I worked 5 hours on my feet with a 3 x 4 x 5mm stone lodged in my left ureter. just 2 days ago, but thanks to my script and a doctor who listens to me, it was tolerable. And the little sucker popped out last night, big as can be. Biggest i've ever passed. So forget the worthless narcotics and ask for a script of something that actually works. And again it has a generic so it is pretty cheap. Anyway, good luck. and quit suffering with the pain."

SPIRITS OF TURPENTINE

It will cause the stones to be disentigrated suffiecent for passing.Do it for an hour at a time, for 4 days and then give it a rest for three. Then repeat - untill all the stones have passed."
