My bf has kidney stones and he is in so
much pain. I was just wondering if there
was another other than giving him lots of
water and his meds that I can do to help
make him more comfortable. Thanks.

Unfortunately flushing the system seems to
be the only way to deal with stones unless
of course they are to large to pass,it is
extremely painful I know but what meds has
he been given?

He's got tylenol 3s. And he's doing a lot
better now, not as much pain as the other
day. But i'm still making sure he's
taking the meds and drinking lots of
water. So hopefully it'll be over soon.

Hopefully it will all be over soon,it is
awful being in that pain but it is just as
hard having to watch someone going through
that pain too as there is nothing you can
do to help.Best of luck to both of you.

Thanks. He's doing much better, still in
some pain, but not nearly as much as last
week... So I think it's almost over for
him :)

That is very good news just ask him to
keep a check on his kidneys though as more
often than not most people do get kidney
stones more than once.

again... Apparently when we thought they
were all gone he felt another one... My
poor baby. Lol I feel so bad for him...

the hospital cuz it was getting so bad :(
