Thank you very kindly everyone for this great posting. I went to the Doctor during the New Year and it was reported nothing could be traced on my urine. However, I was experiencing extremely burning sensation during urinating time. The Doctor offered me to go for scanning instead just to make sure everything was alright with me. At the same time, the Doctor prescribed me some antibiotics which according to the Chemist it was just a general antibiotic type. After taking this antibiotic for 5 days, I was still feeling really unwell and I am sure if you had the same experience before you would understand how exactly I felt.
This afternoon, the pain was just unbearable and I was searching all over the Internet until I came across your home remedy. I rushed to the shops and got myself a bottle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and 2 fresh lemons. It worked perfectly and the pain seems to disappear into thin air although with the side effect like feeling nausea.
To everyone here, a very BIG thank you from me to all you for posting your kind suggesstions and comments. Thanking you very kindly. Kind regards, Bec.

I woke up at 130 this morning with pain from an obvious kidney stone. It waqs not severe at that time. I took 2 pain pills and tried to go back to sleep. By 630 my pain was 9 on a scale of 10 and I know the 10 it can reach. Looked on the internet and found your site. I live in Costa Rica and went out to my lemon tree grabbed 4 lemons. Mixed with olive oil. Within an hour I was pain free. Totally amazed! Not sure if it will be returning, but I have a whole tree full of lemons and the last drink has lasted at least 12 hours.

I am so grateful for this advise. I took a shot of the mixture yesterday and already this morning peices of the stone are coming out. I'm not in near as much pain as I was before. I also read the article about the "Jump and Bump". Worth trying too. It's not this OR that, it's this AND that! To our health!

I am so happy I found this site! I have had numerous kidney stones over the years and always ended up in the hospital to pass them. I felt that old familiar pain yesterday and decided to try to find relief at home and I found this site. I tried the olive oil and lemon juice remedy, except I decided to just use four ozs of lemon juice instead and leave out the olive oil since I didn't have any. I slugged down the lemon juice and then followed it up with 2 more doses of 2 ozs of lemon juice in a cup of hot water with a small amount of sugar (hot lemonade!!! ) and within an hour my pain was down by half. I continued drinking hot lemonade and this morning I can't even tell I passed a kidney stone. It's just amazing. You saved me a lot of time, money and agony of going to the hospital. I hate hospitals! Thanks so much!

Have had stones in past and got through them by drinking lots of water. This time stone only moved from back to left side and stabbing pain became unbearable. Found this web page (thank God) and took first dose of 2 oz olive and 2 oz lemon juice, washing down with glass of water, about 9am. Used Ibuprofen and Diazapam (muscle relaxer) to mitigate pain for about 10 hours. Took second dose of olive oil and lemon juice at 9pm.
Slept through the night and woke up and the PAIN was GONE. A little residual ache from stone being in place for so long, but couple of Ibuprofen solved that. Thanks to everyone for this remedy. Keeping oil and juice on hand for next time.

I can confirm that this remedy works. Two days after Christmas, about 6.30 PM I got strong pain in my lower back, with no prior announcements (except some tendernes in my groin region and car driving became unpleasant). After initial cramp pain subsided for little it moved to front lower abdomen. Tried warm showers that eased it somewhat but at 3AM I could stand no more and went to ER. After giving me anesthetic that did not help much, was sent to urinary clinic, examined by ultrasound that revealed no larger stones, urine tests that showed some blood and finally X ray clearly displayed 3-4mm stone at the entrance of ureter (tube that connects kidney and bladder). They gave me another stronger anesthetic by injection and pain finally relieved. I was told by Dr. to drink lots of water, 3-5 liters a day and walk as much as possible. If that doesn't work they'll have to put the probe up to my penis and ureter to remove the stone. It sounded as an ugly procedure. I was given pain medications. My wife found this oil/lemon remedy on the net and I've tried it. Used 60mL of olive oil and 60ml of squieezed lemon juice, mixed in a glass. I must say that it did lower the pain after a first drink. It was evening, when pain usually increase. Next day I had 2 drinks, in the morning and evening. I did not walk much as it was unplesant but not painful. On a 3rd day had another drink and went away for a walk, about 2 km. Came home and pissed out some blood and black stone chunks, some 3 pieces with no pain at all. Continued to drink lemonade and herbal teas to wash out urinary system and prevent infections.
So, seems that it works, both in pain reduction and expelling those painful SOBs.
Regards to everyone and Happy New Year.

Like thousands of others, I suffered from very severe pain with kidney stone. From the CT Scan, my doc requested that I should undergo surgery immediately, approx. 6.5mm.
Thanks to this online forum, I adopted all the recommendation from this page: lemon juices, apple cidar vinegar, olive oil, and distilled water. Keep drinking them in combinations all day long for 7 days, using oat meal and organic honey to help relieve bad taste and stomach discomfort.
Doc also prescibes me pain killer, uniary tract antibotics and flomax to help increase the urine flow. I have no fever all along!
Stone finally passed out on the 7th day morning! When I bring it in for analysis, my doc is amazed by the size and my ability to pass.
I cannot tell which remedy is the ultimate solution, but the price I paid from taking all these together are so small compared to having to go to the surgery room.
Since this forum has saved me this Christmas, I just want to share this with the rest! Sincere thanks to the previous posts!

YEA!!! Here it goes. Went to the ER with very strong pain from the abdominal towards the groin area. CT picked up a 3-4mm kidney stone. Spent almost 2 weeks on cocktail pills. Pain was in and out with different intensity for another 4 weeks. Started around 7:00P.M on Dec 08/12 the therapy with 60ml OO/LJ followed by 2 long glases of water approx. 0. 950L. Then every 30 min another 2 glases of water for about 2 hrs. Woke up the next morning and around 7:00 AM took the second shot of the OO/LJ mixture. I kept doing this for 3 days. Dec 12/12 approx. 2 hrs after the mixture I felt faint movements in the lower abdomen/upper bladder area. 5 min later the stone popped out with almost no pain at all. Dark color at around 4mm, flat with small corners.
I will keep taking the cure till the whole "thing" is flushed out.... Broke off I am not sure. I will keep posted....
It Works. Try it out. It Works.
Great website. Thank you very much guys for the this excellent website.

My husband found that he had a 3mm kidney stone in an ER. The doctor said he should be able to pass the stone with the help of a medication that helps dialate the ureter. An ER nurse suggested that we look up lemon juice on internet as she heard that it could help prevent kidney stone. My husband took the medicine for 4 days, drank lots of water mixed with some lemon juice, while suffering from severe pain, nausea, fever, chills, but there was no sign of stone.
Then I found this website and decided to try the recipe right away. I mixed 2 oz lemon juice with 2 oz olive oil. My husband drank it and followed by a big glass of water. Amazingly, the next day he passed the stone. The stone broke into smaller pieces. We're so thankful that we found this website and the recipe. Good luck to all who have kidney stones.

I have been suffering with painful kidney stones for 4 months that the doctor kept saying "it will pass". I was miserable. I had read about this remedy, but since it really makes no sense to me I never tried it. However, I finally caved in and did the olive oil/lemon juice mixture twice per day starting yesterday. By this morning the bladder spasm and pain was greatly improved and this afternoon I had some mucus come out with my urine. About an hour later out came that darn stone! Who knows how it works or if it is coincidence, but I am very happy the pain in gone.

I have had kidney stones before so I know what the pain feels like and where it's located. The pain was concentrated on my left lower back and it radiated forward to my pelvic area. I took codeine 300-30 mm tablets to lessen the pain but after 24 hours, not even this pill was helping. After enduring 24 hours of agony I decided to try the 2oz lime juice-2oz olive oil remedy and within one hour I was already feeling much better. However, the pain intensified for a few minutes on the second hour as the stone made its way out. I drank several glasses of water after I took the remedy to help me flush out the stone. This remedy worked for me. I have no idea what size stone I passed because I did not go to the hospital to get an x-ray but whatever its size; it passed. I did not see it come out when I urinated so it was probably a small one. Drinking the remedy was not that bad. I had an after taste of the olive oil for a couple of hours but other than that I was fine.

This works! 2 oz of lemon juice and 2 oz of olive oil. Within 45 minutes of gulping down this nasty mixture I was pain free. Like night and day! For me, the pain may have intensified slightly after swallowing it. But well worth it. This was 5 days ago and still no pain. Anyone know why I now must urinate twice as often as before this cure? Perhaps frequency of urine will adjust back over time?

A big "thank you" to the author of this remedy! My first bout of kidney stones was on Easter Sunday 2005 at the age of 43 - I didn't know if I had injured my back, burst my appendix, or had kidney stones. In extreme pain, my wife rushed me to the hospital's ER where a long ridiculous process started. To make a long story short, a CT scan found a lodged 4mm stone between my left kidney and urthea and after 2 nights of being drugged up on morphine and an IV drip continuosly going, I left the hospital still in pain. The stone did eventually pass.
Over the next few years I experienced passive kidney stones now and then with little discomfort - until yesterday - another full blown pain in the kidney area radiating to my back doubling me over. Not wanting to go though the 14K hospital fiasco again, I did research and as luck would have it, found this site.
The bout started at about 7:00PM, came and subsided in waves of 5~10 minutes apart - I hadn't eaten dinner yet so nausea wasn't too bad. At 8:00PM I drank the 2oz olive oil / 2oz lemon juice concoction - within a few hours the waves of pain lessoned. I drank 5 tall glasses of water during this whole time and was urinating every hour throughout the night. By morning the pain was gone - and by noon today I was back to normal.
I never would have thought a remedy like this would stop such a severe pain!

I had to use this remedy over the other day and I have to say I feel so much better. I was in the hospital 1 time and then to my Dr.when the pain got so bad she said to return to the er, reluctant as the first trip they diagnosed me with pheumonia when I clearly told them I might have a kidney stone, they didn't do a urine test to check for it. I did not want another run around so I tried this remedy as a last resort before a return to the er. I usually never go there, but the pain was very bad. I tried this and within a few hours the pain began to subside and by time dose 2 kicked in I could breath without pain and am sure everyting will be fine. I estimated it at 1/4 cup of each my oil wasn't extra virgin, so I'm not sure if it really matters what kind of olive oil as long as it's pure. The lemon I used was pure lemon out of the bottle.
Thank god for you and natural cures, otherwise I would have been through a long list of anitbiotics I do not believe in unless absolutely necessary.
