I've been having them since I was 16 years old. Beyond any shadow of a doubt, that is the worst pain I've ever had. They have slowed down for me since I gave up my sweet tea (for the most part).

My potion for one of those is lots of water and cranberry juice and some Uristat from Wally World to dialate everything so that stone will get on out of there. Ultrasound as a backup!

Prayers sent up for ya Creek!!
