funkymunky Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Isn't the stone a calcium build up and dehydration?? Maybe the milk?? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598580-my-tom-tom-saved-my-lifesorta/page/2/#findComment-588969308 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sin-ergy Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Damn I never hope I get kidney stones. Ugh. Isn't there a procedure where they use lasers to break up the stone? You still gotta pass it though :/ Well, glad you're ok. :doctor: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598580-my-tom-tom-saved-my-lifesorta/page/2/#findComment-588969313 Share on other sites More sharing options...

megadima Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Something very similar happened to me yesterday... I was with my friend.. an unstable one, to say the least. I go in to Popeye's to get some food. Come back... has a needle in her arm and is unresponsive. After freaking out for a minute and not successfully waking her up. I decide to drive to the hospital. I figured I could get their faster than the cops could get to me... so I turned on my emergency blinkers and speed through about 20 red lights on a major road in Baltimore County... It was one of the scariest things I've ever been through..

HawkMan Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 ummm they also have non intusive ultrasound devices that can break up the stones from the outside. but I'm not sure it can be used on all kinds of stones or something.

Spyder Veteran Posted November 5, 2007 Veteran Share Posted November 5, 2007 i had a kidney stone a few months back. i learned that the pain occurs while the stone travels thru the narrow tube between your kidney and your bladder, and not what I originally thought (passing from your bladder to the outside world) painful thing without a doubt Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598580-my-tom-tom-saved-my-lifesorta/page/2/#findComment-588972335 Share on other sites More sharing options...
