My last one was September 11, 2001, I was on Demerol and writhing for most of the time in spite of the drug.

When it finally passed and I was able to think clearly, the nurse said there had been a strange aircraft accident in New York...and then the second one hit. I spent the rest of the day in horror, wishing that I was still on Demerol to deaden the pain of the attacks.

Anyway, doctor told me to drink more water which I have religiously done since. Two good things have happened, one is that I have not yet had another stone (as opposed to the 4 I had before Sept 11) and my incidence of flu's and colds has gone waaaaay down (from 3 or 4 per year to perhaps 1 per year).

Doc figured I was just frequently dehydrated which is the ideal method to create Agony.

PS - Niece passed a stone about 6 months before giving birth...she rated the stone as the more painful experience of the two by far......
