I may try that for real if I EVER get another kidney stone. $5,500 for emergency room visit plus lots of pain. I pray I don't get another one-EVER!!
I've never had a kidney stone but from what I've heard from those who have, I think I'd opt for whatever gave me the fastest relief.
Let's see.... $5,500 buys... oh, what? Well, several hundred fifths of JD, so... yes - we can expect the stone to dissolve, hopefully before the liver, but if the ol' "kill or cure" results in the former rather than the latter, then, hey, that's an end to problems, too!
