Tips for Staying Hydrated and Avoiding Kidney Stones

Any tips for staying hydrated? For some reason I feel really sick after drinking as much as a tall glass of water, maybe 10 oz tops, for at least half an hour. My urologist stressed very sternly that dehydration is probably the root cause of my kidney stones and that I need to get on top of it, based on the amount of urine I handed into the lab for a 24 hour urine test I did for something unrelated a few years back. I dont want anymore of these little hellrocks building up in me, but I also hate feeling like I'm about to throw up so often.

Dealing with Kidney Stones: My Experience and Struggles

Hello! I had my first kidney stone last Febuary and it was hell itself. I didnt know pain could be so bad. Ruined my college semester that had just started. The ER doctor told me it was 2 mm and should be out within 24 hours, but I struggled with it for 4 weeks and 6 days, and when I sent the stone in to the lab they discovered it was actually 4 mm. The catscan found two other stones, 1 mm and 2 mm, that have yet to drop. I'm wondering if anybody else struggles with panicking whenever they start feeling pain in the areas where their kidneys are. It keeps happening, My lower back will be sore, I'll be like oh no its happening again, and then itll go away. The stress really doesn't help things.

Dealing with Kidney Stones: Seeking Advice

I have been dealing with Kidney Stones since 2003 all too regularly. I have multiple stones that fall anytime I even get slightly dehydrated. At least 20 ER trips due to UTI and multiple Stones falling. Most times they are accompanied by a UTI. Most recent infection began February 26 2022 and continued through May 2022. I went into Sepsis in May due to the infection not clearing up after 6 different antibiotics. I had a Ureteroscopy with Lithotripsy and Basket May 17. I feel like my doctors are treating this way too casual and not pursuing anything more or even looking into why my body keeps over producing Calcium Oxolate stones. Anyone had similar experiences and have ideas to pursue testing on or how to get the doctors to take this more seriously?
