has anyone ever opted for something bigger than the standard strainer your doctor has given you? When I had my attack, I had 2 stones & passed one there at the hospital. the strainer that they gave me wasnt that wide & when I aimed my Johnson at strainer & pissed it out, I almost missed the strainer. When I was ready to pass the 2nd stone a day later,I made my own strainer. I bought a good sized wire mesh food strainer & lined it with coffee filters. I found it easier to pass the stone into a larger strainer & not worrying about missing and landing in the toilet, since the 2nd stone did "pop" out because I had to put force on to get it out.

Why strain it, why not nature take it course? Millions of people pass kidneys stones and never feel the need to 'strain' them, in fact usually can't wait to get rid of them.

What matters the most is to see the stone going out so that to be sure that it's gone. If it is you fist episode of lithiasis I don't think that they need the stone for analysis. If you have been told so though, just put the stone in a little bag or a cup and go to the lab. it doesn't have to be sterilized

So....all you wanted to know is if anyone has ever opted for something bigger than the standard strainer? That's what you wanted to know?
