Fascinating insight. Never made a correlation myself, but I had never had a stone until they discovered I had a mild case of osteoporosis and of course they (the doctors) told me to start taking calcium supplements. Now I have stones every year, but this year has to be the worst. I'll be posting more on this issue when I respond to Mark in a few minutes. Quadius

Even though my urologist says there is no proof of a correlation between calcium intake and stones it seems very consistent when I eat a little too much dairy with calcium I start to have stones again. When you say you are sweating, did they monitor you for hypereflexia?

I was laying in a pool of sweat and he told me to keep it in for 48 hours but I was passing stones around the cath which hurts even worse than it sounds. He told me to come back Wednesday to do it all over and I about fell out, I gotta do this again?! Well Wednesday I wentv in and did it again and again he put a cath in me telling me to leave it for 48 hoursbut once again I was laying in a pool of sweat and passing stones around the cath so we took it out and I passed several more stones. I never want to get another stone! I'm recovering slowly it still hurts like hell and blood red urine just sucks. I'll keep you posted and thanks for the card Dave!
