I was wondering about that too Chris.......perhaps men get them more then women???

Glad to say I have not! Women can get kidney stones, too.

I had them when I was in my early 20s. I was getting paranoid when you said "men only". Thought I was some sorta freak .

No, but my mom did. She said pains were worse than labor

Nope i havent but my dad has

I haven't had kidney stones, but I hear they're terribly painful. Chris, glad to hear you're not having trouble with them anymore!

This is one of those I don't need to know things...but my doc told me to hold a cheesecloth/gauze material thing in the urine stream so I'd know when I passed the stones. Helllloo? Can you imagine trying to do that? I didn't need to see them.

Men do get kidney stone more than women.

I've had kidney stones once and it hurt sooooo bad. I would not wish them on my worst enemy.

LOL, Oh Chris.....yuck. Would be much easier for a guy to hold the cheese cloth there.....LOL

What in the world does it feel like I wonder? Does it hurt down below?? I guess it would hurt by your kidney though huh?

I don't remember other than it hurt. Cheese cloth. I think I had like and embroidery (my spelling again- sorry) hoop type thingy. There was no way I was going to mess with all that. See? Told you - too much information
