They are not fun!  I finally had surgery - laser - to break up the last
stone which seemed to have done its work.  :-)

I have learned that beets do a terrible thing to my system, was not
aware of spinach so I do appreciate that information.  Nuts of any kind
are not a problem as I just do not like them.  I think my main problem
is not enough water.  I hate to drink water even tho' I know I need it!
It took until late May (early June) before I really began to feel well,
but so far, things are going very well.  (finger and toes crossed)  :-)
I appreciate your concern and thank you for your information!  That is
something I have never been able to get from any doctor!   I had one
stone surgically removed about two year before the one that ended in
the laser surgery (much more comfortable) and from neither doctor could
I get any help in what to avoid or what to do to help other than drink
lots of water!
Hope all is well with you!
