I had about 8 kidney stone attacks. Some lasting more than a day, over a 2 1/2 year period. Till I finally got rid of them. 2 naturally and 1 surgically. I've heard it said a few times that it's a worse pain than giving birth. No disrespect to the brave women out there who have given birth. I'm sure it's very painful. But are there any women here who would like to comment on this? Who have experienced both. Is this true or not?
Also, are you still getting them? If not, for how long now and what changes, if any did you make? Diet change? Lot's more water?
Guys, feel free to comment.

I have experienced both and I have to say that kidney stones hurt a lot more than giving birth.

I can honestly say I have not experienced either one but, I would assume that kidney stones hurt far worse. In labor, the body produces endorphins..a natural pain killer to help alleviate the pain of labor and you get to rest between contractions. Plus you get this beautiful little baby for your efforts.
Passing a kidney stone is constant pain with little to no relief and for all you pain and agony...all you get is a stone.

I couldn't just sit around and do nothing like my doctors suggested.
They didn't want me to do anything or to take herbs or herbal remedies, but I had to try something - they just wanted me to do dialysis!
This program allowed me to take control of my health. I went from Stage 4 to Stage 3 kidney disease.
It was easy to do and my BUN, creatinine and anemia are all in better ranges.
