Looks like the contents of a couple of chicken gizzards.

KRAMER: Not yet. But the suspense is killing me.

I was just in the hospital emergency last week not once, but twice due to a kidney stone (3mm) that was wedged in my left kidney. Had intense pain for an entire week. The first trip in, they discharged me with Hydrocodone which worked until the pain intensified again and they no longer masked the pain. My second trip to the emergency room they discharged me and prescribed me Oxycodone. Finally passed the thing. The following Monday, the Urologist calls me to let me know I still have 2 in my left kidney and 1 in my right. Said they were 1-2mm in size. They are still in me and I’ve been drinking about 3 liters of water per day.

Wish me luck as the only people I would wish a kidney stone on would be the ISIS DIRTBAGS.

Yet another reason to hate tofu.

I was hospitalized for one in 1984 - passed it after one day and it looked like a small fish hook. Very painful.

Honda once made a six cylinder motorcycle race engine that revved to nearly 19,000 rpm. The sound was an incredible shriek. One auto journalists compared the sound to a panther passing a kidney stone.

Try this:

The wife and I flush every 3-4 weeks and get out dozens to hundreds of stones each time.

What did they expect?
One of the ingredients in tofu is Portland cement.

Doesn’t excessive spinach consumption also cause them?

Husband has had kidney stone issues for forty years. Use to drive him to the hospital stopping to let him throw up from pain along the way. He has had many lithotripsy and laser procedures to break up the too big to pass ones. Now he passes one three or four times a year with minimal pain. For a while I put them in ziploc bags with the date to compare sizes. Have never seen smooth ones like in the picture-only sharp many-pointed ones. I have thought that the lithotripsy procedures leave tiny particles behind that build into the bigger ones from calcium or oxalate. But only my theory and have heard not a credible one.
