I guess this might be an unusual question here:
Is there a link between kidney stones and fibromyalgia?
I believe there is!..
Last week a kidney stone was removed from my lower urinary tract, by
ureteroscopy and transurethral shock wave lithothripsy.
I feel wonderful! Two remarkable results from the operation: I can
sleep again like I could before, when the fibro came into my body. The
fibro pain is not entirely gone but I feel a lot better and I have no
fatigue anymore. Second: my stool is normal again. Before the
operation it was thin and watery and its colour always turned to
yellow. Now my stool is solid and dark again.
My theory is that the kidney stone, during all the years it was in my
body, was the reason of all my trouble. I feel my autonomic nervous
system knew about that kidney stone already a long time and it was
doing silly things to me just in order to reduce the pressure on my
kidneys. All this had a bad influence on my sleep and so I became a
fibro patient.
That's why I ask it to the fibro doctors here: is there a link between
kidney stones - autonomic nervous system - bad sleep & fibromyalgia?
