OK -- I checked with my chiropractor. What he recommends (and sells) is Chelated Magnesium Oxide Gluconate, 133 mgs. Dosage of 6 tablets per day until pain disappears. If a person is inclined to produce kidney stones, then they should remain on a maintenance dose of 3 tablets per day. The brand that he sells is *dc* (doctor of chiropractic, I think) -- and a 90-tablet bottle runs seven dollars. An inexpensive solution to a miserable problem, for sure. MA

This according to my chiropractor, when my 87-year-old Mom was dealing with them. The urologist wanted her to have the ultra-sound process that blasts the stones into smaller pieces. It was not necessary -- she took the magnesium. MA
