Avoid pancreatitus

Believe me, I understand pain. In the past, I've broken both kneecaps, had migraines last dozen years and 36 kidney stones. I'd trade any or all to avoid pancreatitus again. I'd even take Kristoff's garden hose.

Worst pain I ever had in my life.

The next three days I'm becomming a couch potato.

Nothing wrong with that!

((the couch potato part anyway...))

Hang in there, Mac!

That's life - one minute you are all fat and happy basking in the sunshine -- and then the bolt of lightning hits you....

Make sure it is not French fried potato's.

Seems like you were going to install locks that need a key to open them on either side. Perhaps lock the doors and send yourself the key in the mail. That will keep you from leaving the house for a few days.

All kidding aside, rest and recover. Take care you old Wolfie.

You didn't mention whether you are still troubled by kidney stones, but I suspect that you are. I discovered a preventive for kidney stones about 30 years ago which has proved successful ever since.

I recommend taking 500-1000 mg. of magnesium every day. After a very painful kidney stone in my late 40's, I remembered something I had learned in geochemistry in graduate school which I thought might be relevant.

Kidney stones are calcareous, made up of calcium oxalate and/or calcium urate. I had learned that, in the ocean, even though oceanic waters are , in most areas, saturated with calcium ion, inorganic limestones, which would be composed of calcium carbonate, do not form because magnesium ion in the water prevents the nucleation of CaCO3 crystals.

"EUREKA !" I cried. Perhaps magnesium ion would also prevent the nucleation of calcium oxalate or other calcium compound crystals in urine. I started taking magnesium immediately and I have never had a kidney stone since. Magnesium compounds being much more soluble than calcium compounds, there is no danger of crystals of magnesium oxalate, etc. forming either.

Magnesium dietary supplement pills are readily available at health food stores. It can do no harm to try them and I hope that you find them as effective as I did.

I'll try that remedy if my stones ever return. I've not had one now in about two plus years.

I imagine Bagoas' suggestion is as a preventative and should be taken daily ahead of time rather than waiting.

Bummer Wolf. I live on a farm in the sticks. I'm a farm eunuch. If someone showed up here and told us to trim the trees they'd be run off with a shotgun. Land of the free my ass. I hate zoning laws. I don't trust the government and I despise the police. We are now being told our farm is too small and we can't raise certain types of livestock. Bullshit! When the economy collapses and we go into full blown depression are these same people going to supply me with the food I could have grown? I don't think so. F them. We are in full survival mode here and getting ready for the fall. I suggest the rest of you do the same. Good luck to you all.

Submissively yours,

Flatbagger
