Uriflow


by: KD on Tue, Oct 30 2007

Hi, I was just wondering if any of you had ever heard of Uriflow? I am on my third battle with kidney stones I currently have a 4mm stone in my ureter (or at least it was a couple of weeks ago). I am awaiting my next CT scan to see if we are going to have to go get it or if it has passed (still feel like I need to urinate freq, so think it’s still there).

Anyway, I recently found a product online that has been advertised on numerous news stations that is guaranteed to break up your stones and pass them, Uriflow. I should be receiving it in the mail today, so I will post again if it works. If you have tried it please respond.
Thanks!

    This is not so much a story as a caution. I was dignosed with my first kidney stone at the tender age of 16. They also found out I had 3 kidneys. Two smaller than average with seperate ureters to the bladder. [more..]

    Over the weekend I awoke to some extreme pain on my right lower rib cage. Went to the e.r. and they found a 5mm stone. Very painful, after 3 days in the hospital it was removed with laser and a stint was also inserted, to be removed 5 days later. [more..]
  • stones again - by moldog - (Mon, Oct 22 2007)
    I just had EWSL for my left kidney in January. After the shock treatment, I had to be admitted because the fragments tried to pass at the same time causing a blockage. Then stents were put in to help pass the fragments. My urologist did not do any test on the fragments to see what type of stone I had. Now I have another stone in my right kidney. [more..]
  • Sick, sick sick - by Andrea - (Mon, Oct 15 2007)
    I found out I had a kidney stone and infection a few weeks ago after going to the emergency room for extreme pain. After reading the literature, I am confused. I had been having intermittent pain for months, had a hardness on that side of my lower abdominal for most of the last year that no one could diagnose, had been very sick for most of that time, [more..]
