Ferret's slowing down.

Good grief ferret, what next!!!! So sorry to hear that!
Thankfully, I've never had one of those.
All the best and hope you're back on your feet soon.

Ouch! I never experienced what you are going through ferret. For people I know passed stones, I have not heard one of them say it wasn’t too bad. Hope you the best.

Get well Ferret!

Geez, Ferret. You’re having an awful year. Hope you’re stone free and eating off the bike now.

Sorry to hear this ferret!

I had to go to ER once with kidney stones right after I had a lithotripsy ( where are they supposedly use shock waves to break up the stone so it can pass easily but all they did was just dislodge it for me I guess). I didn't even know I had it until I had a 'check up' so this was done as a preventative measure to keep it from breaking loose at an inopportune time.

The only thing positive I can say is they warned me as they were giving me some powerful painkiller through my IV and kept saying are you ready here it comes and I said whatever just do it.

Needless to say I was soon out of pain so that was a good thing LOL

Then I got to spend what seemed like weeks but was probably days filtering looking for that stone so they could test it for its mineral content. Evidently not all stones are the same.

I have been drinking mainly bottled water since maybe that's helped?

So cuuuuute!

Hang in there Ferret. This will pass.

Too bad! I know that pain as I had kidney stones at the age of 13. They got that fixed and one hint to avoid kidney stones was to drink a lot of beer. I'm still hanging on, no more problems so far...

Wish you all the best! Don't let it bring you down.

Hang in there Ferret. Hope to hear better news soon that you are on the mend.

Django - good antidote. Beer IS good for you! HA!

[GoldOxide_imp]

Is beer an option fer ya Ferret?

Caustic acid might be faster, but beer would be smoother, better tasting, and less harmful.
