We took my boyfriend to the hospital on Friday and he was diagnosed w/ a kidney stone. 2-3mm. He's having another attack right now... and he's in the bathroom throwing up and won't listen to any advice i'm trying to give him currently. Hm. I'm asking him to just drink a lot of water or apply a heating pad, but he says he's too sick. I know he's in a lot of pain... he usually doesn't show it.
Um. What are some warning signs that I should take him into the ER again? Also, he's already on perscription pain meds for this... but it doesn't seem to help. Any advice on some more home remedies?

I can understand what your boyfreind must be going through as i too had the same problem. Give him painkillers. An intraveinal injection does wonders. Make an appiontment with the doctor and have the stone either removed surgically or broken. a 2-3 mm stone can easily be broken by applyin shock waves. It is painless takes about 10 min and leaves no scar as the skin is never opened. BEST OF LUCK

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.

Unfortunately, it's a little late for home remedies.
Take him to the ER now.
He needs IV medications and fluids to help him pass the stone.
There is nothing you have at home that will be strong enough to relieve his pain.
Take him there now and they will help him pass the stone and then analyze it. And then, with that information, ask your question again.
Go now.

mine weren't big enough to be operated on. i would have to run a hot bath that i could get my back in, take 2 extrastrength aspirin/advil/etc, and would drink hot tea. that soothed it while it would be passing the first couple stretches, usually the third stretch would be while urinating and it would just pop out.
to prevent them in the future i try to drink lots of water, take cranberry pills (the pills try to keep the kidney linings free of debris), i don't drink sodas and try not to drink too much tea or milk/dairy products in excess. there are kidney stone made of many different things, depending on what is consumed and how your body processes. my father in law had to have his sonically zapped they were so big.
