Today, my doctor confirmed that the extreme pain I've been experiencing is due to a kidney stone. My friend decided this was the time to tell me that passing a kidney stone is the male equivalent of child birth. Hello even more pain. FML

Today, I went to the hospital for wrenching pains in my abdomen. It turns out I have the largest "non removable" kidney stone my doctor has ever seen. It's the size of a fucking walnut. I have to pass the thing. FML

Today, I was passing a kidney stone. I had to go to the ER but had no one to take me, so I drove myself. They made me wait 3 hours because it was suspicious that someone in "so much pain" could drive. It was the largest stone that doctor had seen in his career. FML

Today, I found out I have to have an operation. This will be the third in 3 years, all for completely unrelated reasons. I'm only 26 and apparently my body is already falling apart at the seams. FML

Yup, cool
Today, I had the pleasure of having a kidney stones removal procedure where they hammer your kidneys to break up the stones. Afterwards, the doctor called my wife over the intercom to come to back to the waiting room. She freaks out, runs back, and the doctor says, “I just wanted to show this stone. Cool huh?" FML

Today, I had a whole month off before I started my new job. On day six, I had to go to the ER because of a kidney stone and had to get a ureteral stent. In two weeks they will remove the stone, then another week until they remove the stent. I will be recovered just in time for my first day of work. FML

Today, my wife got her second kidney stone in a month. I gave her some pills to help with the pain. An hour later she started hallucinating, pulled down her pants and tried to pee on our couch. FML

Because OP definitely asked for them, sometimes it's passed down from generation to generation.

how many dicks did you eat to pass kidney stones..?

Try taking stuff less seriously, eh? I can see you're taking your own advice quite well.. If I've confused you with a single logical comment, I'm going to assume that you are not very intelligent.. And if you didn't want anyone to care what you think, I do not believe you would be using curse words. I have no problem with the age of a person, just their lack of intelligence. Now that you completely understand me.. (Highly unlikely) I'm sure you're missing the hole in which you live, so I will let you get back to it. Good day.

Maybe it's something in your diet. You should go to the doctor.

You people have no idea what you're talking about. Yes soda does cause it, SOMETIMES. A lot of the time it is caused by other underlying kidney and urinary tract problems. Too much potassium can even cause them. Hope you feel better man, hot epsolm salt baths will soothe your back after they pass.

It appears that OP thinks that kidney stones are related to age.

At this rate if you ever need a catheter you'll have no problem handling that. :D
