It was interesting, though. <br />I honestly don't think that lemon juice and olive oil is going to get rid of the grit for me. I am glad it worked for you and perhaps I should try it but the thought of trying to swallow that mixture makes me want to vomit. My stomach is already weird these days from the pain, I guess.

I remembered today that I had "kidney gravel" years ago and treated it with lemon juice and olive oil on an empty stomach and 1/2 hour on my back with feet up. Might have read about this treatment in Back to Eden, which used to be my natural healing bible. Looked this up online today and found this site: https://www.earthclinic.com/cures/olive-oil-lemon-juice-for-kidney-stones.html Might be worth a try? It did work for me.

I am afraid to take prescription painkillers because I heard that your brain so falls in love with them that it INVENTS pain so that it gets another fix of pain killer. I am glad your pain is handled by Ibuprofen. I am so sorry that you are enduring all of this, but you are right. It is these things that cause us to stop and take stock. <br /><br />PS: Because of you, I am finishing up 60 ounces of water today. Fear is a powerful motivator. <br />Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.com
