Kidney stones...reason to cut back the coffee by esbita2005-02-11 08:44:28
  If it starts a-movin', by leistico2005-02-11 10:01:26
    That's contrary to my experience by HadEnuf 2005-02-11 11:20:12
Morphine just made me sick, and scarcely touched the pain. (For opiates to *really* work, one has to start taking them *before* the pain begins).

An IV anti-inflammatory, Toridal (sp?), proved to be the most effective, and kept me off the morphine until a few hours before they manipulated the stone back into my kidney, and placed a stent, since they couldn't schedule ESWL for about a week.

FWIW, women who have had both stones and natural childbirth say the stones are much worse.
