Rivendell.. regarding the calcification .. Oxalates get into ALL tissues, so keep that in mind as you review your diet.
It's a systemic problem.
Many prayers for you.

Thanks Lymetoo. I don't mind people telling me about what has worked for them, but they shouldn't come across as having found the cure. Evernyone is different. And scams are so bad.
Didn't realize it is systemic. Oxalates seem to be in everything. I guess I need a list of what I can eat.
I am reconsidering the lithotripsy now, because of the blockage and then thinking moving forward doing more lemon and chanca and doing my best to change my diet.
Yep, my head keeps spinning. I wonder where it will land next.
I have another health issue. May post about it later. Thanks for the prayers.

I know. The diet totally sucks. I have to follow it or I'm in a lot of pain.
Keep going! You will make it!

Thanks LymeToo! Will do my best with the diet.
Guess I am having the lithotripsy this Thursday. Have not mentioned lyme disease, which I am still treating. Don't know if I should. Don't like getting into the controversy.
But will mention the zithromax - maybe say it is for sinus problems, which I also have. Told him about the green sinus discharge I have at times, and he didn't seem concerned.
The doc said I could keep taking the vitamins. Said I may bleed a little more, but he is not concerned.

You shouldn't have to mention Lyme unless you want to.
What was that about zith?
Best of luck with your litho ..

I just found my way back here...my sis is still good after procedure. She seems healthy but has smoked and used alcohol regularly for yrs. I'm not sure how that could have compromised her health relating tokidney stones
Tutu...I mentioned diet and she wasn't interested at all. Except when I said lemons. Her doc told her that. She peels a bunch chops insides up in blender and freezes that in icecube tray. Then pops the cubes into her daily water...she works hard managing an office. I copied her ice cube trick and often dissolve one in cup of hot water ...like tea
I hope it went well and you recover quickly. The fatigue seemed to be worse thing for my sis

Thanks Lymetoo and Kayak.
Had it done. Feel very beat up and tired. There is more I could say, but another time when I can think more clearly.
