I Have the Mumps

[Kelly]

I was always shocked at how small they actually are. For all the pain and problems they cause, they look like a little, reddish pebble.

Let me know what the lab finds...I bet its a calcium stone. I still drink coffee...I just do not overdo it with the caffeine. They say iced tea is really bad for people prone to that type of KS, so I have quit drinking that altogether. I drink as much coffee as I want in the morning (two cups or so) and then I am careful with anything else I drink.

BTW..if you get more than two in a year, they might recommend putting you on medication. I am not on any but it was an option. (that was the urologist, not my primary doc who treats me for pain when I get one)

I am very happy for you that the ordeal is over!
