I had one bout of them 25 years ago and luckily not a recurrence. I had my wife drive me to the E.R. (somewhat ironically, she's a lithotripsy nurse) I was in that extreme pain and I knew I was moaning, I just didn't know how loud I was until the E.R. Doc came over and asked if it was OK with me if they gave me something for the pain while waiting for my doctor. When they turned on the tap of the Demerol Visterol and Morphine cocktail all was good, and I thought I was floating 18 inches above the gurney and was trying to figure out how they did that!
3 days later I passed several stones into the cone shaped screen they give you to pee through. I was amazed how tiny they were. Mine were analyzed but were composed of so many different things the only advice the urologist could give was drink water or beer! Swear to God he was serious. Everyone asked me what I was going to do, and my reply was to "Keep that doctor forever."
I was the same as you, ferret, w/r/t water. I always recalled W.C. Field's stated opinion on it.
