I tried this mixture of lemon juice & olive oil to alleviate the pain and possibly help pass my stone. Aside from repeating the taste of olive oil continuously for about eight hours, it also made me quite sick to my stomach. I fought off several attempts to heave the whole thing back up. After enduring an entire night of non-stop stomach turbulence, I was rewarded with a very good case of the runs. Not an overall pleasant experience, and more than 34 hours later I still have my stone. Oh, and the pain that evening was later controlled by tylenol with codeine.

Hi! all, I'm 18 weeks pregnant, and 9 days ago I was admitted to the hospital with an excruciating in my left flank. I was told I had a 4mm kidney stone. Being pregnant, my husband and I were quite worried about the Tylenol 3 I had been prescribed and worried about how the whole ordeal could affect our baby! As luck would have it, I found your website, and drank the olive oil/lemon juice mix and about 12 hours later, I was peeing little grain of sand and the pain had diminished. 3 days later I drank the mix again thinking the stone would still be in my kidney, and the next morning the pain had vanished. That same day, I was schedule for my second ultrasound, and they checked to see where the stone was located, and it had literally vanished from my system!! Thank Goodness as my baby is one and didn't have to take any pain killers or go through agonizing pain... Don't hesitate to try, it's drinkable, it's natural and it works!! Cheers

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!

So far, pain from kidney stones is gone thank God and thanks to this page. First off...thank God for this page! In January, 2006, I was at work and became incapacitated due to lumbar and flank pain. I was sweating profusely, and skin was cold to the touch. It was one of the worst pains I had ever experienced. It was so bad, I was taken to the local ER by my wife. A KUB film (ie kidney, urinary bladder x-ray)and CT of the abdomen revealed 3 kidney stones, an 8mm in the left kidney, and two 4 mm in the right. Extracorporeal lithotripsy was indicated, but I didn't have thirty or forty grand to spend on it. This began an ordeal for about 10 months plus, in which some days were ok, and some days I had to stay on heavy duty pain pills to function. But, things took a turn for the worse. The pain was daily now, and getting worse. It became almost impossible to stand up to wash the dishes at home. Then, in desperation, I started Googling for possible remedies. I found this page, and at first blush, I thought, what good will lemon juice and olive oil do? After all, I reasoned that my stones were composed of Calcium Oxalate, and would not dissolve in acid urine. But, when disabling pain is the only alternative, you try anything, so I sent my wife to get some olive oil and lemonade. They were out of the cold pressed extra virgin olive oil, so she got the house brand. She got the lemon juice from concentrate. I mixed up the brew and chugged it down fast, followed by a glass of water. Surprisingly, it did not taste that bad. The next morning, I got out of bed early...dreading the pain in the left lower abdomen and low back. It didn't appear! I waited nervously the rest of the day. Nothing. At the end of the day, I took another dose for good measure. I haven't been aware that I have passed the stones, but the absence of disabling pain is such a Godsend, I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to be able to get up early again and do my chores and enjoy life. I am sharing this remedy and site with patients, friends, and family. Again, thank you so much.

ok.. .I am guessing this worked for my pain... but no stone yet.. .I drank the remedy of 2oz Lemon juice well mixed with 2oz Olive Oil...I drank it and began downing my water and I had a sudden rush of hotness over come me... I ran to the sink and puked it all up! Including everything I ate previously... We will see if there was enough digested to pass the stone but if you have a weak stomach, you may puke your guts out! Good luck! Don't let this discourage you... there are a lot of people saying it DOES work... but I guess I have gotten the rough end of it...LOL... Good luck to all of you reading this for I FEEL your pain! These little boogers suck! I hope this works for you!

Kidney stone passed within 11 hours of taking the lemon juice/olive oil remedy! Thank you for posting this very valuable information. I searched the web when a friend said he thought he had kidney stones again (prev. had kidney stones 7 yrs. ago). He recognized the symptoms - nausea, vomiting, chills/fever, severe lower back pain. A trip to the ER confirmed what he had thought - yes, kidney stones. After leaving the ER with a RX for pain medication, my friend took the home remedy & called me today (11 hours later) & said he passed the stone!!!! This is such valuable info! I urge anyone reading this to try it for kidney stones!!

Had two SWL shock treatments and stent for kidney stone. Neither worked. Tried olive oil and lemon juice followed by glass of water. Exactly 25 hours later, my stone came out. I really doubted this would work when I read it on your website, but I thought, it certainly couldn't hurt. I was headed for a uteroscopy to have it removed next week. Thank goodness I won't have to have this done. My doctor won't believe me when I tell him. Thank you for all of your inputs.

When in pain, people will have a go at just about any remedy to eliminate it. A lthough the idea of taking 2 oz of olive oil and equivalent of freshly squeezed lemon juice didn't appeal to me but after reading the positive responses it sounded like the fix I was after. I presently have a 6 mm kidney stone blocking one ureter which has been well and truly stuck for 2 weeks. I have had them before but the last was in the early 1980s. Living in the tropics (and the southern hemisphere) the onset of each tropical summer usually results in dehydration and an increase in the reporting of kidney stones. I'm a casualty. After each kidney stone attack the stone is only moving fractions of a inch and causing significant bleeding with the result that for half a day afterwards my urine is practically pure blood and then blood clots. Not sure how serious this is, as a nose bleed can look pretty horrendous with blood loss and it is certainly not too much to worry about. CAT scans and x-rays have shown that the stone is hardly moving at all and the next step will be some sort of intervention to eliminate it. As a last hope of avoiding this I have been searching for remedies. I took the mixture of olive oil and lemon juice for 3 nights in a row right before going to bed. Although feeling extreme nausea I managed to keep the concoction down through the night. By the fourth morning I had had enough. I didn't appear to do anything. I didn't really understand how this remedy was going to work giving that it was likely to acidify the bodily fluids and make things worst. The use of olive oil also escapes me, certainly wouldn't act as a lubricant at the level of the urinary tract. As other comments have noted, although there are different chemical composition of kidney stones, the previous ones I had were calcium based and the best approach for these is to alkalize ones bodily fluids, not acidify them. So I am onto sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) at a dose of 3.5 g, dissolved in a glass of water, three times a day. I haven't had an attach for 3 days now and the urine is very cloudy, which I suppose could indicate that stones might be dissolving. The jury is still out.

I had heard of this after my last bout with a stone. When I started having pain last night, I googled again for the oil/lemon stuff and came to this site. I sent my husband to the store to get the olive oil and lemon juice. I took it (gross) and about 15 min later still having pain I decided to take a hot shower. --I can't believe people do not recommend that more for the pain. It always gives me instant relief at least for a while. Now a hot pad never worked, but a wet hot rag worked. The hot showers are the best. I believe the moist heat allows the ureter to expand a little. About 15 minutes after that, I went to the bathroom. Not seeing anything, I almost flushed the toilet. Then I saw the stone. It was totally white, Blended right in with the toilet. Maybe that is why people have not seen the stone. They are always dark like a stone and easy to see. I took it out and it broke in two and crumbled and was mushy in my hand. I couldn't believe it. Through the night I felt like crap chills/ sweats/ nausea/ headache and even during the day today. Not sure if it is related or I just ended up with a bug at the same time. Even if these bug symptoms were related to it, I would still recommend it. I just couldn't believe it did that to the stone. It must also be doing it to the many stones still in my kidneys. I just hope these other symptoms go away by tomorrow. Thanks much

Two days ago, I tried the lemon juice and olive oil, about 2:30 in the afternoon . After I took it I drank lots of water. I did not have much pain just a gnawing uneasy feeling in the back area. The next day I continued with water. Today at 1:30 in the afternoon, Guess what???, a stone came out! I collected it and it crumbled easily, I guess the lemon juice did it's thing! I will be doing the Lemon Juice thing every few weeks . Tonight before Bed, I will do it again, just in case there are more. WOW, it worked!!

I had a significant decline on the intensity of the pain that I've suffered for the last 4 days since the initial shock of kidney stones. The stone hasn't passed in 24 hours, but the relief of not having agonizing pain was worth the trial! I went from using prescription Tylox to over-the-counter Motrin for pain relief. It felt as though this mixture expedited the travel of the stone. I would recommend this solution as it is safe, inexpensive and effective. Strangely I was watching a cooking show that used these two ingredients to make a simple salad dressing!
