This happened to me. I drink a lot of soda.

>>11809971
You didn't learn your lesson?

>>11809963
what made americans believe that legend?

>>11810021
It's not a legend. Drinking a ton of soda and little water gives you kidney stones.

>>11809963
This happened to me when I was fucking 20 because I drink nothing but diet coke and it was the worst pain I think I have ever felt. If you drink lots of soda/tea try to work lemon juice into your diet somehow, it apparently helps break up the stones.

>>11812176
>and it was the worst pain I think I have ever felt
It is more painful than child birth. I feel for you.

>don't drink enough water
>blame your kidney stones on drinking carbonated syrup instead
lmao just lmao

protip: alcohol does the same it dehydrates you even faster

Passed one about this size a couple years back, took about a week to pass it. The last three days were spent on my bathroom floor completely out of it; sweating, feverish and having hallucinations/delusions. The pain was truly transcendent and unlike anything I've experienced. After passing I pissed brown fluid for two weeks and it took nearly 6 months for the pain/burning in my peehole to subside.

>>11812176
So just drink sprite instead?

>>11813748
Do you have a video of said passing? How about a pic with the 'stone?

>>11813748
Jesus, why didn't you seek medical attention if it was that bad?

>>11814323
Because he's retarded

>>11809963
I already have. Why would anyone drink liquid diabetes?

>>11813748
That sounds absolutely, terrifyingly, horrible. How do I ensure that I never have to experience that?

Just drink couple teaspoons of lemon juice a day and you wont have kidney stones.

>>11814362
drink your daily healthy amount of water and try to avoid lots of processed foods, soda and sodium rich stuff.

>>11814379
Tell me where that is and I'll fucking kick it down.

>>11814381
do NOT, it makes me happy

>>11814379
does the water in flavored beverages count?

>>11814390
i dont know, i'm not a medical professional. that's just what I could find on a page on google. Maybe like the powdered drinks but carbonated water isn't the same as normal water so idk

>>11814396
holy shit that's a comfy pic

>>11814405
yea, it's one of my favorites.

>>11814405
>comfy

>>11814405
It hurts me to look at. I wish I could have something like that.

>>11814418
it really is comfy, working on something like that in my house now.

>>11814366
B-but I don’t want to get britbong teeth!

>>11814458
Dont worry, that mostly depends on having too small jaw and facial structure which is a result from inbreeding.
Remember that mixed race babies are the healthiest.

does milk help make those?
i drink a liter in 2-3 days
am i gonna die

But soda is water, would eating a spoon of sugar after drinking a glass of water give you kidney stones too?

>tfw my dad does nothing but drink diet pepsi
>asks me to buy bottles every day
>gets upset if i but him regular pepsi, or if it's not caffeine free
i try to tell the boomer that if he keeps it up he's going to get some stones but it's been more than 6 years and it still hasn't happened yet

>>11814838
There are retards out there that only drink when they eat.
Its more not enough water than too much soda.
That said, separate from stones, you should drink a lot more water than you drink soda.
Mostly cause consuming less sugar in general is a good idea so your cells don't lose their insulin receptors fast.

>>11813758
I fucking hate Sprite arguably more then I hate having rocks in my cock

>>11814469
>mixed race babies are the healthiest
This is the most jewish post I've seen in quite some time

>>11809963
Used to drink a ton of the stuff. Was obese mostly because of the extra calories from it.

Switched to sugar-free, not that it's necessarily harmless, but I like to think it's the lesser evil.

He might have gone to a doctor and that still been the outcome to pass it on your own. They often bust up the stones with laser unless it's found they simply must do that. They usually send you home with pain meds and try to see if you can pass it naturally. My brother was on the floor in 3 days of pain while his wife was delivering their baby in the hospital. It was a chaotic week, to say the least for their entire family.

There are some known assists for getting them faster, if they have formed in your past: such as certain drug side effects, metabolizing medications via the kidneys, kidney disease, etc. Taking daily calcium is one of the big risks, as is Vitamin C in megadoses, like people who pop Tums, people who take too many supplements. People who have eat large amounts of oxalate rich foods like spinach, bran, nuts, legumes, and so a health kick can be a trigger as can a holiday of excessive nuts and rich foods. Extreme dieting, like high protein diets can create a problem in the kidneys, sometimes quite serious.

JUST DRINK SUFFICIENT WATER.

It's also genetics as well... because it's the same with any sort of disease where minerals can build up in parts of the body. Gout, gallstones, etc. are all from the bodies inability to break down certain minerals the body takes in, usually it's because of a faulty organ or gland, a symptom of another disease.

When I was 25 my doctor basically told me I'm going to get gout when I am older because I've had on and off signs of it in my medical records.

Nothing I can do about it, it's just in my genetics and it's probably something to do with my gallbladder, which has history in my family. Getting old sucks.

So I assume that I only drank soda like once a month, drank +8 glass of water every day, and my piss is clear as water, I'm on the okay side?

>>11814408
I'm going to make this my wall paper. Thanks anon

>>11815637
>send you home with pain meds
That's reason enough to go to the doc.

>>11814413
Based judgemental retard

>>11817973
how shit does your diet have to be for it to get THIS bad?
was this from a 600lb person?

>>11812176
malic acid (found in apples as well as other sources) will help break up stones as well.

>>11809963
i only drink diet soda, no sugar, hope this helps

>>11818063
>diet soda
im sorry but this will happen to you

actually cocoa powder will give you stones.
so don't eat a lot of cocoa.
