Quote:A kidney stone, also known as a renal calculus (from the Latin ren, "kidney" and calculus, "pebble") is a solid concretion or crystal aggregation formed in the kidneys from dietary minerals in the urine. Urinary stones are typically classified by their location in the kidney (nephrolithiasis), ureter (ureterolithiasis), or bladder (cystolithiasis), or by their chemical composition (calcium-containing, struvite, uric acid, or other compounds). Kidney stones are a significant source of morbidity. 80% of those with kidney stones are men. Men most commonly experience their first episode between age 30–40 years, while for women the age at first presentation is somewhat later.

Ironicly(if that's a word), Soda caused it. Although, I haven't drunken a soda in literally three years. Apperantly, it was Wendy's Frosty. That lovely ice-cold milkshake-like drink.
It seems that it was enough to trigger something wrong with me. Back when I was 16 I drunk A LOT of soda. I stopped drinking soda and I went from 230 lbs to now I'm at 185. But that one frosty just ruined me.

Hm. I'm kinda the same, but I've tried to keep the soda to a minimum for a number of years. There's a lot of sodium in soda and other products. That's really really hard on the kidneys if you overdo it. How'd you get down to 185? I'd love to get there but I can't seem to get below 205 no matter what I do (I run half-marathons and bicycle like 6 miles a day).

I've been hosting a public server lately, with at the most, eight people online at once. Entertaining plugins, decent players, raising animals on a farm.

Hah. I'd love a good Minecraft server.

Another way is to, get ready for this, insert a tube into your pee pee. Either way, stones crushed and gets removed when you pee.
