I passed over 48 stones in April, 2011, I immediately began taking all kinds of " home remedies" to dissolve stones, and just had another bout passing over 24 stones, so far.
Thank you, sorry to be grumpy but those of you who have had the pain should understand!!

You can try either Chanca Piedra (stone breaker) or Horsetail which always works on my husband. It is alot easier to give you a good answer if we knew what kind of stones you are producing. Are they infection stones (lots of infections), cystine stones (very rare), calcium/phosphate stones, or uric acid stones. Uric acid stones would be helped by lemon, vit c, ACV etc... But if you have calcium stones you may have a magnesium to calcium imbalance. You might try taking magnesium supplements to help balance the calcium and phosphate you are ingesting daily. Infection stones would be much more difficult to treat. You want to get to the bottom of the infection first then treat the cause of that. Things that would help get rid of infections are the alkalizing remedy from Ted, potassium iodide or lugals iodine, lysine, and vit c. I am not sure what helps with cystine stones as they are very rare. I hope this helps.Replied by Jen (Bozeman, Mt, Us) on 11/22/2011
I forgot to mention that you will find most doctors don't know squat about homeopathic remedies because they don't get endorsements from them:)Replied by Lou (Tyler, Tx) on 12/16/2011
I believe I read on here about putting apple cider (the drink) in a crock pot with nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon to taste. Heat it up until hot. Drink it for a couple of days (reheat). It removed a keloid scar on my c-section. Never had pains in my back again either. I suspect it was kidney stones. They come out like gravel in your urine.Replied by Timh (Louisville, Usa) on 12/17/2011
Also for "dissolving", the herb Chanca Piedra is suppose to be very effective. For the "passing", there's the Watermelon and Bath remedy that is said to effectively and painlessly "pass" K stones. Eat one large Watermelon in one act. Pour one hot tub of water and soak for thirty min.
For prevention, use Magnesium in whatever form daily, and 1 grm Taurine twice daily. The herb Marshmallow lubricates the kidneys thus restoring proper function.
