I produce stones at the speed of light. I probably have one several times a month. I am in hopes the lemon juice and olive oil works for me. One thing that may' be a problem with the nays is, their stone is too large to pass. Crossing my fingers on this one. Just mix.

My attack started about 5:30 am yesterday morning, I know this sounds crazy but I went for a jog hoping to help the stone pass. I have read somewhere that jump up and down and jogging will help the stone move through the Ureter and not only that the pain stops as well. Which it did for me, I don't know if that is true or not, but us "kidney stoners" will try anything to make the pain stop! However, once I got back from my jog and jumping up and down I was beat and I wanted to do nothing more than to lie down and go back to sleep. About 10 minutes later the pain came back sharp. After 8:30 am hit I was still in steady pain, I decided to go to the Emergency Room. The ER nurse gave me Demerol and something for my nausea stomach. That seemed to do the trick. After about 30 minutes I could feel the stone moving. The doctor came back about 12:30 pm and said that I had 3mm stone lodged my Ureter. So he gave me some medicine and sent me home. I could still feel the stone nagging a bit, but nothing like the pain I experienced earlier in that morning. Later in the afternoon I could still fill that stubborn stone in my right side. That's when I started doing some research on the web about kidney stones and came across this website. I started reading all the comments posted by others yeahs and the nays.

My conclusion was (1) my stones are not as near bad as others on this site, I can't even imagine what they are going through and my sympathy goes out to them and (2) this would not work for everyone since there are different stones, sizes and body chemistry. However, since my pain was still nagging at my Ureter since I've been back from the ER, I thought I'd give the Olive Oil and Lemon Juice drink a shot. I would have to say that it's not all that bad of a drink; it's almost like a lemon zest salad dressing, which by the way might not be a bad dressing the salads. You could kill 2 birds with one stone, have it as a dressing and get rid of your kidney stones. It was around 8:00 pm when I guzzled it down. About 30 minutes later I had a tuna fish sandwich with some iced tea and gram crackers. By 8:45 pm my pain had completely stopped! As some have reported about being nausea after drinking it, I didn't experience that. As I'm writing this its 9:08 am the next morning and I have urinated 3 times since and no stone. Also I have experienced ZERO pain, no nagging on the right side at all. So I am going to keep everyone updated with my progress over the next few days and weeks until the stone passes. I am not going to drink the salad dressing drink until I start to feel the pain coming back. I will though drink plenty of fluids until the stone passes.

My other task is to try and get the remaining stones in my kidneys resolved by following what "4/23/2006: Bertha from Phoenix " wrote about in her post- However, I am going to take on a daily basis 400 mg of Magnesium, 1 gm Calcium and (B-Complex 2 times daily). I believe this only works if you have calcium oxalate stones. I don't know if this would work on the other types of stones.

My History of Kidney Stones:
I had my first attack 1994 about 3:30 in the morning. Since I didn't know what it was I decided to go to the ER after 30 minutes of pain. Once I got the ER the pain had stopped. They kept me there and did CT scan and X-rays. That's when they discovered that I have kidney stones. After that I never had another attack until 2004, ten years later. I think I had about 3 attacks in 2004, went to the ER once again. Then another CT scan and x-rays, that's when they discovered both of my kidneys are filled will small stones, they were anywhere between 2mm - 4mm. I am still trying to get an estimate on exactly how many stones are actually in there. The stones that I have are calcium oxalate. They sent me to a nutritionist to explain about the foods to avoid. Which were nuts, berries, chocolate and etc...They also did every single test that you could imagine to see if my body was producing high levels of calcium oxalate. Which it wasn't, they had no idea of how I got them and told me that my body is not producing the levels of calcium oxalate that could form the stones. The only thing I can figure out was that it must have been something that I ate or drank a lot of or(lack of) in the past, maybe about 10 years ago or so. When I lived in Arizona back in 1994 for 6 years (now looking back at it) I can remember when I didn't drink that much water and I would take in high levels of workout supplements such as weight gainer and creatine for about 1 year. I am not sure if that had anything to do with it or not but I think something that I did in my past must have contributed to me forming the stones. I am 36 years old health male and eat fairly health foods (no junk foods). I don't over eat too much of one thing. Since 2nd episode in 2004 I started making sure I drink plenty of water. I have water at every meal and throughout the day. I would say I have about (4 -6) glasses of 8 oz of water a day. I know that isn't enough but I bump up my water intake when I start passing stones to 10 -12 glasses of 8oz water a day. Since 2004 drinking more water especially over the last 2 years my attacks are happening more frequent, so I am guessing the water is flushing out my stones. In 2006 I had 3 attacks as well and went back to the doctor again and they said that the stones were still there in both kidneys but had not grown at all in size at all. One thing that is really strange is that ALL of my attacks have been on the right side; I have never had an attack on the left side. I know the left side is due so I am hoping to find some good remedies. Thank God I have free medical benefits from the military or this would have cost me a fortune every time I went to the ER and doctor. The only way I could cope with the pain was to go the ER and have them give me Demerol. The doctors tell me that my stones are too small for surgery and that I will have to pass them.

The last CT scan as of September 21, 2007, found small stones still in both kidneys, 2mm-3mm. My task is to try and get the remaining stones in my kidneys resolved by following what "4/23/2006: Bertha from Phoenix " wrote about in her post- However, I am going to take on a daily basis 400 mg of Magnesium, 1 gm Calcium and (B-Complex 2 times daily). I believe this only works if you have calcium oxalate stones. I don't know if this would work on the other types of stones. I am hoping this well dissolve the stones since my kidneys are not forming them anymore.
Wish us all the best with our stones and remember "Try to Jump up and Down or may go for a jog the next time your passing a stone". Just make sure you do it in room where your neighbors don't see you.

Found recipe of 3 oz Extra virgin Olive Oil and 3 oz of lemon juice. My adult son started feeling the pain of his first kidney stone at 6AM and he got into doctor at 10:30, in extreme pain, got a shot in office, then a CT scan to confirm that is what is was. At home at 1PM he started the lemon juice and olive oil and in 24 hours it passed and he said it didn't hurt when it passed. I am guessing the lemon juice must have helped dissolve the edges perhaps. Directions we got was 3 X a day with the oil and lemon.

Lemon Juice/ Olive Oil (remedy) -- I recently had my first run in with kidney stones. After suffering with the aganizing pain for a few days i went to the er for an xray and it was noted that i had a 5mm stone in my right kidney. The doctor said it may pass on its own or futher action may be required. I decided to wait it out since i didn't have insurance and pain medicine seemed to be getting me thru my day. Then upon reading this remedy on this site I decided to give it a try. I drank the mix on a wed. night before i went to bed. I was pain free all day thursday, friday when woke up there was slight discomfort but nothing that needed pain meds. I then went from sat. to wed. afternoon pain free. Early wed. evening i passed the stone with no pain. I would like to think this remedy was the cause. I would give it a try -- you have nothing to lose.

My dear boyfiend Bob was suffering with a kidney stone. His urologist did a treatment where he pushed a strawlike tube(under local anesthesia) up Bob's private part and into his urinary tract in the hopes of dislodging/removing his kidney stone. The doctor only pushed the stone back up into his bladder. Doctor Wonderful then advised Bob to set up an appointment to get put to sleep and the doc would use a large instrument to grasp the stone. Bob wasn't thrilled with this idea because after the first session he had some bleeding and burning upon urination which was very uncomfortable. Anyway...as a loving friend that I am, I went online and saw the remedy of olive oil and lemon juice. Bob followed the instructions. 2 ounces of EVO (as Rachel Ray would say) extra virgin oil and l squeezed lemon. He drank it down like 2 shots of liquor. After 24 hours when he went tinkle, he felt a stinging pain in his lower groin, and a couple of hours later while urinating he passed a brownish rough edged stone the size of a green pea. I was stunned by the size of it, (I'm sure they can be larger), but the fact that such a hard stone of that size can pass through a male's penis. So...it can be done and this is my testimony. Try it before or while you see these medical guys to shove stuff up your privates, and possibly do more damage. What can it hurt. Oh...Bob did say he was burping up the taste of olive oil and felt a little nauseaus, but nothing unbearable. He is so relieved...me too and I don't want to see my loved ones suffer!!! Thank you.

Hi, will the 2 oz of olive oila nd 2oz of lemon juice help with a 5mm stone that is lodged/stuck in the mid ureter? The stone has been lodged/stuck for 3 years. What can I use to dislodge or help dissolve the calcium stone naturally? I appreciate any suggestions.

I am a Nay....I mixed up the juice and oil and it didn't taste bad. The only problem is I can't keep it down. I am not sure if it is the mixture or just the pain but I vomitted so much that I couldn't stand up, got the shakes, and cold sweats. A very unpleasant experience. I wound up in the emergency room getting an IV full of antibiotics, anti nausea, and pain killers. I will say though that after this attack I am going to try the concotion again to see if it will help clean out my kidney without the massive pain.

am Pattabiraman, Indian, residing in Sharjah, UAE. I had my first stone removed (size - 6mm X 4mm) by Laser Lithotripsy in 2000. Two years later I had another one, came out on its own just few minutes before undergoing IVP diagnosis. This was like a crystal disk. On both the occasions the calcium oxalate stones stayed over six weeks at the lower end of my right ureter tube. On 14th of June 2007, again I felt severe pain on my right flank and I knew another stone had started to move. I was rolling with pain for half an hour. After that I passed urine stained with blood and all the pain went away. After this, for over a month every now and then I felt pain while peeing and the urine was with blood. Also I had a pricking pain at the tip of my penis and severe burning sensation at the time of urinating, especially at the start and end of urination. After carrying out Ultrasound Scan, X-ray and Urine tests, the Urologist confirmed that this could be another small stone still at the lower end of the ureter and prescribed to continue with Ural, Rowatinex and other antibiotics and pain killers. But it didn't improve my situation. My daughter who stays nearby, scanned through internet and found the Lemon juice & Olive oil remedy form your web pages and suggested me to have a try. I know that one of my colleagues removed his gall bladder stones using the Lemon and Olive oil Gall bladder flush method. My wife also encouraged me a lot to go in for that. So I wanted to give a try. I stopped all the medicines on 12th July. I wanted to keep my stomach empty to reduce vomiting and any other uneasy feeling. since I stopped all medicines my pain increase on 13th. Today (14th July, 2007), I got up around 5 'O' clock in the morning and passed motion and cleared my bowls. I took exactly 2 oz. of Extra Virgin Olive oil and 2 oz. of lemon juice and stirred them well. I was not sure of the taste. At 6.30 am I just drank this in one go in few seconds. Believe me, the taste was not at all bad. I didn't have any vomiting sensation or any other uncomfortable feeling. First half an hour I didn't drink anything, After that, every half an hour I took around 400 ml of water. I went for peeing around 7.15 am . I didn't pass anything, but the pricking pain & burning sensation got reduced a bit. After an hour, I felt a bit of pressure at my back around the area of both my left and right kidneys for a short time. Then I was watching TV and felt sleepy around 9.00. I slept for half an hour and when I woke up, my bladder was full, and hence had the urge to urinate. I went to the toilet and peed holding a strainer to filter any particle. There was no pain at the time of peeing and I felt something went through the urine stream. Yes it is the stone around 5mm. in size. WOW !! what a relief in just 3 hours!!. Believe me, it really & definitely worked. Absolutely I don't feel or have any sort of uneasiness through out this 3 hours. My stomach is very very normal and don't feel any problem with my digestive system. I am writing this email (12.30 pm) immediately after removing my stone (of course, proudly keeping the 5mm stone in front of me) with this Lemon Juice & Olive oil method. I definitely encourage those who are suffering from kidney stones to have a try in ths method, before undergoing surgery, Lithotripsy or Shock wate Lithotripsy treatment. Many thanks to your Web Page and Internet service. Regards
