Yikes, that’s a lot! :(

In Meathead’s case, he’s a heavyweight, but I guess he could walk around above the 265 limit and need to cut weight.

Bad weight cuts have cancelled tons of fights.

Luckily I have not had to experience this yet in life.

My buddy used this herbal substance off of Amazon, made out of some stuff from South America which is supposedly supposed to be extremely effective for kidney and gall stones.

After using it for X amount of time, a few days or so, it stopped hurting, he was able to go back to work, then about a week and a half later he said he passed it without incident.

This is the stuff-

thanks- added to my amazon cart for purchase- worth a try- Most of my stones go through without too much pain- but every so often one is large and sharp enough to cause problems- Tell your buddy i found out that eating salty snacks like ritz crackers, corn chips, & such was increasing the amount of stones I’d get- but the weird thing was i could put table salt on foods and be fine- There are several kinds of stones- the ones I get are worsened by certain salt I guess- Since I stopped eating salty snacks, and cut down on deli meats- i get less now- probably more like 40 a year- before I discovered snacks were contributing some, it was around 80 or so- and more bad ones too-

Wow, that is a substantial amount of stones, I’d say.

My buddy says stones run in his family. His dad gets them often apparently. This one was his first that he knows of.

But he avoids salt like the plague. He’s about 36, little on the heavy side, doesn’t want to go down the high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, heart attack route. His dad also has type 2 diabetes, but is and always has been rail thin.

So he basically does not even touch salt anymore, whereas I am addicted to salt and no stones for me so far... knock on wood.

But yeah, he spoke very highly of that product, though he did say it didn’t taste so well.

And reading through the costumer reviews of it seems to indicate a pretty high level of satisfaction, so I hope very much that it is able to help you.

I also prefer a natural remedy if it can be effective to any sort of drugs or procedure. Nothing worse than side effects.

[[But yeah, he spoke very highly of that product, though he did say it didn’t taste so well.]]

I have a couple of health issues, and a number of years ago tried going the natural route to try and help- I drank, chewed, steeped, soaked even smoked (some indian tobacco it was called- lobelia inflata— perfectly legal, not a drug or anything) etc some of the nastiest junk ever- I drank stuff that would drive a maggot off a gutwagon- I probably did more harm than good- spent tons of money too-

Yeah the reviews looked good- they also mentioned another herb that amazon sells too- can’t remember the name right now- but looked promising too-

Thanks for the recomendation- definitely gonna give it a try-

Moving up in weight helped Henrdricks, the cut was killing him.

And DAYUM, if I’m Hapa Browne I’d go get a CT scan just for precautionary reasons.
