THANKS CINDI! I have have kidney stones for "ever" it seems like they mainly hurt on my right, after several times to the hospital for treatment and a lithotripsoy, it seemed endless well in Feb. I thought my kidneys were on another spell so.. off to the hospital, well.. it was my appendix. I had emergency surgery for that and my kidneys never hurt anymore so.. of course I thought it was my appendix and not my kidneys. then last week my left side starting hurting, so.. I started crying cause I didn't want that pain anymore. I read this and tried it and within 10 min. I don't hurt anymore!!! I haven't passed the stone yet but I am so convinced that I will. I was told they are 7mm.

I started having lower-right back pain a couple of weeks ago. I knew it was a possible kidney stone as I had a couple of them about 15 years ago when I was in my early twenties. I quickly went to my doctor as I knew the pain would rapidly increase. The pain was almost unbearable by the time I got a pain shot. He prescribed some Percocet (pain pills) and some Ibuprofen and sent me home. I was glad to get some pain medicine because I thought I would just go home and pass the stone. That was what happened with both of my stones that I passed 15 years ago. Unfortunately, it wasn't going to be that easy this time. So for the next week I would have severe pain for about a day and a half and then the pain would stop for another day and a half and then the cycle would repeat. I tried the 'jump and bump' method of passing stones. This is where you jump 2-4 inches and land with your legs locked and it kind of jars your body to try and get the stone to drop. I probably jumped so much that I am now probably a few inches shorter. Well this didn't work. So I went back to the doctor and got an ultrasound and an IVP scan. This is where they inject you with a dye and take a bunch of x-rays. The results showed everything was normal (no stones!). The doctor was surprised that everything was ok so he scheduled me to get a CT scan thinking the pain might be something behind the kidney. That night I did some more research on 'right flank pain' and found this site. I saw the 2oz lemon juice/olive oil recipe and decided to try it. I got some lemons and squeezed them into a measuring cup and got about 1/2 cup. Since I needed to use the same amount of olive oil, that would make a whole cup of this stuff to drink. I didn't think I drink all of that and keep it down so I used a 1/4 cup of each. It actually didn't taste bad. It just makes your lips feel weird (oily). I chased it with a bottle of water. After after about 15 minutes I actually felt a tingling feeling in my right lower flank. At the time I thought it must just be my imagination. I drank this in the afternoon. The next day no stones came out. But the following morning I passed a huge stone 9-10mm that had some very sharp crystalline formations attached to it. I was so happy. I then canceled my CT scan and I can't wait to show my doctor. I am going to get my stone analyzed so I will know what type it is but I think the best thing is to drink more water every day. Many thanks to this site. I wish I had tried this a week earlier.

5 days while at work I had gotten a sharp pain in my lower back and left side just under my rib cage. The pain was enormous. I thought that I had gas and drank a can of ginger ale. The pain did go away for about 2 hours. Later that night I had gotten a bad attack. I stuffed myself with gas x and mylanta and suffered all night. The next morning i woke feeling like i was hit by a truck but had no pain in my back or side. My family members suggested that maybe I had a kidney stone, but i had no pain. Needless to say later night I found myself in the emergency room. The pain was unbearable. When i entered they instantly said kidney stone. Well they were right. They did a cat scan and said it was a 4 mm and it was in a good position and that i should pass it soon. Well soon felt like an eternity. The pain was so bad that i was going out of my mind. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't sit down, I couldn't lay down. Every time i drank water or cranberry juice the pain would get worse. My stomach would blow up, I would then urinate followed by a pulsating stabbing in my whole left side. Well anyone who is going through this knows what I am talking about. When I woke up with lots of blood in my urine I went to the doctors office. I told him that percasets were not working so he gave me vicadine but nothing relieved the pain. Thank God my brother stumbled across this web site. When I read all the good reviews I figured there was nothing I could lose. Last night at 1 am I felt the pain coming on strong. I then mixed 2 ounces of lemon juice and 2 ounce of olive oil. I was scared it would make the pain worse but it didn't. I drank it quickly followed by a large glass of water. I was surprised that the taste wasn't bad at all and it wasn't as thick as I anticipated. I was also loaded up on pain killers just in case. Within minutes of drinking this I felt almost a soothing of my side. I was still in much discomfort for most of the night. Finally at 6 am I fell asleep. 1 hour later at 7 am I woke and felt like I had to go to the bathroom but it also felt like something was trying to come out. I rushed to bathroom and it just slipped out. No pain.. NO PAIN... NO MORE PAIN. It was a sharp little thing mixed with some blood. The pain was gone. For anyone going through this try, it immediately 2 ounce lemon juice mixed with 2 ounces of olive oil. When you feel the pain drink it fast followed by a full glass of water. Within 6 hours my pain was gone. I don't know why the doctors don't tell you to do this. I guess they just want to make some money.

I was billed $3,000 at a local emergency room to find out I had a kidney stone. The shock of such a high bill for not even two hours work which didn't even eliminate the problem was about as bad as the excruciating pain. I luckily found your site online and thought, "What the hey? It isn't poisonous, so I'll give it a try" The next day I was in even worse pain but at least I could feel that the stone was moving. The pain completely stopped, and the following day, without any pain at all, I passed the stone. End of story. So put me down in the Yes It Works column!! And thank you for sharing your cure.

I passed a kidney stone 20 hours after drinking the mixture of 2 ounces each of lemon juice and olive oil followed by a large glass of water. I started having kidney stone pain at 1:00 a.m. Thursday. The pain was extremely severe all day Friday. My wife found your web site with the #1 remedy for lemon juice and olive oil. I was in so much pain I immediately tried the remedy at 8:40 pm on Friday. Within 1/2 hour my pain subsided and I had no pain on Saturday. At 4:10 pm Saturday, I passed a kidney stone the size of a small peppercorn. I have had kidney stones twice before and it took the usual week and a half to pass them. I am definitely going to use this remedy if I experience any more kidney stones in the future. THANKS FOR YOUR WEB SITE.

On 6/26/06 I was taken to hospital where I was diagnosed with a 3mm kidney stone. I was discharged and instructed to drink massive quantities of water and take Ibuprofen as needed as the stone could take anywhere from 1 day to 1 month to pass. I scheduled a follow up appointment with Urologist ("earliest appointment" 7/11). Needless to say; the pain and discomfort was unbearable. On 7/03 I found this website and decided to try the lemon juice/olive oil. I drank the mixture at 7 p.m. followed by a large glass of water. At 10 a.m. today; I passed not one, but TWO stones. Happy Independence Day!!!!! And yes; I Believe!

I woke up Saturday morning with backache. I knew it was a kidney stone. Dealt with it for 24 hours, I called a friend of mine (Charlotte) for advice on Sunday morning, she told me about the lemon juice and olive oil remedy she had read on Earth Clinic web. I immediately went to the kitchen and drank the lemon juice and then drank the olive oil and water. 10 hours later the stone/stones dissolved and I was able to pass them. Thanks to Earth Clinic and my friend (Charlotte) for the cure!!!! God Bless you both.

On Monday my husband called me at work and said that he had a horrible pain in his back. He went to the doctor and was told that it was most likely a kidney stone, the doctor gave him some pain killers and told him to drink lots of water and it would go away some time in the next two weeks. For three days my husband laid in the bed in a drug induced sleep because that was the only was he could stand the pain. On the fourth day I went to my computer and did a search engine for kidney stones and found this site. My husband was willing to try anything to get rid of the pain. He drank the olive oil and lemon juice about 6:00pm on Thursday and by 6:00am on Friday he had passed the stone. This not only saved my husband's sanity but mine as well. THANKS!!!

For the last 6 months I've had flank pains, Nausea, blood in my urine, etc. Three weeks ago, I went to my Dr. who diagnosed me with a urinary cyst and last week another said I had IBS (Irritable Bowl syndrome). That same day I ended up in the hospital because the "attacks" had become consistent and I could no longer tolerate the pain. My suspicions were confirmed, they told me I had a 4 mm stone in my left kidney. At 19 I've dealt with cancer and cysts on my ovaries that flare up during menstruation, the last thing I needed was kidney problems. I was discharged from the hospital WITH the stone because I didn't have insurance. I didn't know what to do or when the stone was going to come out so at this point I knew I'd have to take it into my own hands, I went on the web and discovered the WONDERFUL REMEDY # 1! It REALLY WORKED Thank you, Cyndi!!! It was 12 am and out of desperation I prepared the remedy, it didn't taste so bad but it was hard to keep down. 9am I had a sharp pain during urination, I chickened out and ran for my percosets because I knew it was coming. I held off urinating till about 11:30 and sat in a tub of hot water were I noticeably released the stone! I don't know if passing it would have been painless without the pain killer, but I know within 9 hours I was ready to let that sucker go. I totally recommend this, it's inexpensive and in the comfort of your own home. Try it, it just might end your suffering. Good luck!
'Wes from Riverview Florida writes, "Been in pain on and off since jan 2nd 06. Went to doctor Feb. 20 told me to go get iv/tomog. Setup appointment 4 days later. Got results back 3 days later they found 4 kidney stones biggest one 7mm-4mm and 2 2mm. Setup another appt. fastest they could see me was 2 weeks. Told them i probably would not last that long;got on computer that night and looked up home remedies and found this site---THANK GOD!! Was 11:00 at nite went to store and bought lemon juice, already had olive oil;mixed 2oz of each stirred and drunk it-- next day 20 hours later while at work felt it drop; got in truck rushed home and within 15 minutes it was passed the 7mm came thru. feel like million bucks now--also found on web md a product called uriflow--suppose to dissolve kidney stones;will try that product for other 3.

Re: Lemon juice and olive oil -- THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH! I had blood in my urine and was diagnosed with 4 stones, 4mm on up to 1cm. Was referred to urologist. 2 days before going there, I drank the horrible tasting (gagging, really) concoction of 2oz lemon juice and 2oz olive oil. Within a day, my blood in urine was gone, along with almost all of the pain! Urologist said only one stone left, a big one, and will get another xray in 2 weeks to check on it. Needless to say, I will be gagging down the concoction every day until that appointment. I also noticed TODAY that my urine has gravel in it-the damned stones disintegrated! Thanks again for the cure. Beats lithotripsy, even the new one with no water/tub!

Just an update to my post of 10/01/06. Here it is, nearly two months later and my ex-husband has had no more problems. He drank three doses of the 2 oz lemon juice/2 oz olive oil *cocktail* and the pain disappeared. Then, during a pre-op test, they could no longer find the kidney stone. Thanks to Cyndi for posting this cure. I love this site!

2 oz lemon mixed w 2 oz olive oil cured kidney stones. I happened to find this site three weeks ago, and then two weeks ago my ex-husband called me from the emergency room to tell me he had a kidney stone that was too large to pass. He filled his prescription for pain pills and scheduled the surgery for last week, knowing what it involved, because he's had them eight or nine times in the past. I sent him a link to the testimonies on your site and he wrote back that it sounded terrible. I replied, "As terrible as having surgery?" I didn't hear anything more from him and then saw him yesterday at a function for my son. I asked if he had the surgery and he said, "No, I went in for an exam and one more xray before scheduling the surgery and the doctor couldn't find anything. It's gone." I'm so thrilled that this worked for him and I can't wait to tell everyone about it. I'm just curious if he passed them already w/o realizing it? That would seem odd to me, but I've never had these things (knock on wood). At any rate, mark one more person down in the Yay column.

I am soooo thankful I came across your website. I have been dealing with a 4mm kidney stone since first part of Sept. Finally had a xray a few days ago and determine it. IT was in the tube and trying to go into the bladder. Dr. wanted to do what they normally do because he said it was to big to past on my own BUT I was willing to try anything. And praise the LORD the lemon juice and olive oil worked (2oz.lemon juice and 2oz. olive oil). I took a dose on Monday night the 16th and took one when I got up this morning and then this evening and at 7:30 I passed the thing. Thank you Lord!!! : ) I truly believe God lead me to your site and I'm sooo thankful again that it worked for me. God bless!
