So, kidney stones are no effing joke.

More behind the cut. CW for ER, food and medical trauma/ptsd.

The only comparable pain I've had was when I was pitocin-induced with my third child. Natural childbirth wasn't even close, pain-wise.

I spent two full days entirely unable to consider eating. I spent close to that long medicated at a level of oxycodone that gave me a migraine but the migraine was worth the relief from the abdominal pain.

Food is now terrifying. I already had issues due to working to control diabetes with a low carb diet, do you know what a mind-fuck it is to not be eating anything at all and still have your blood sugar hit 160+? Cortisol is like that.

The ER was torture. Just, torture at every level, from knowing I had no choice but to take my mask off when I was throwing up and knowing no one else was wearing them. (I'm immune suppressed.) To having to be sitting up for like 5 hours waiting to be roomed. There was a recliner for part of that but if I moved it unreclined. I had to have a CT. CT tables are often triggering to my PTSD. This one was not because it was padded enough, but I spent a good hour or so expecting it would be triggering. The CT tech was very compassionate.

My husband was there, and fantastically supportive. My dad was there and 99% supportive and 1% he misgendered me the entire time. It's complicated to get mad at someone who is behaving to you in a loving manner and going to an extreme to take care of you while just... not ever getting it right. He's not transphobic, he's just bad at pronouns. I haven't been 'rejected', but dude, it's been like 6 years? One nurse used "she" on me once, noticed the pronoun tag on my chart and apologized for misgendering me and she doesn't even know me.

Did I mention food is terrifying? I don't yet know what kind of kidney stone it is. So I'm making some educated guesses about what i need to eliminate from my diet and the answer is not great for leaving me anything I can eat safely. Today I have eaten an apple, an orange, a few eggs and a shitton of homemade low carb lemonade.

Why my body decided that making rocks would be a good use of its time is beyond me but lord, I wish it hadn't.

Oh, and I've spent most of the last three days sleeping. Like, just constant nap mode.

Sooo...

I didn’t post on November 1st because I was felled with what I thought was a weird stomach bug. Back pain woke me on Tuesday followed by non-stop vomiting (you’re welcome for the visual).  I’d attributed the back pain to intestinal stuff since they wrap around back there.  On Nov 2nd I rallied a bit thanks to anti-nausea meds and Tylenol, and felt good enough to post about our wonderful Halloween.  No surprise to people smarter than me, things didn’t get better.  By lunchtime Thursday I was in the ER getting a CT scan and all that. Turns out that I have a very large kidney stone and only surgery can get it out. In the ER they said it was 10mm which really didn’t mean anything to me until I saw this pic.

I met with a urologist today who is in the kidney stone business and he said according to his measurements it’s 12mm.  Either way, it’s not getting out on its own.   On the way to the ER I told Mickey that I hoped I was one of those women who get a scan and discover they have a 20 pound tumor or cyst.  No such luck.  Just a little rock.  I couldn’t have been more shocked to hear the news and asked what on Earth caused it. That’s when I was educated about oxalates. In a nutshell: Oxalic acid is an organic compound found in many plants, including leafy greens, vegetables, fruits, cocoa, nuts, and seeds. In plants, it’s usually bound to minerals, forming oxalate. The terms “oxalic acid” and “oxalate” are used interchangeably in nutrition science .Your body can produce oxalate on its own or obtain it from food. Vitamin C can also be converted into oxalate when it’s metabolized. Once consumed, oxalate can bind to minerals to form compounds, including calcium oxalate and iron oxalate. This mostly occurs in the colon, but can also take place in the kidneys and other parts of the urinary tract .In most people, these compounds are then eliminated in the stool or urine. However, in sensitive individuals, high oxalate diets have been linked to an increased risk of kidney stones and other health problems. Normally, calcium and small amounts of oxalate are present in the urinary tract at the same time, but they remain dissolved and cause no problems.However, sometimes they bind to form crystals. In some people, these crystals can lead to the formation of stones, especially when oxalate is high and urine volume is low. Small stones often don’t cause any problems, but large stones can cause severe pain, nausea, and blood in the urine as they move through the urinary tract. Although there are other types of kidney stones, about 80% are made up of calcium oxalate .For this reason, people who have had one episode of kidney stones may be advised to minimize their consumption of foods high in oxalate  Not the only cause of kidney stones, but the most common cause. Once they get mine and analyze it they’ll be able to tell me (hopefully) why it formed and what I can do to avoid a repeat performance.  The paperwork that they gave me to take home had a chart of high oxalate and low oxalate foods.

I love spinach.  Know what I like on my spinach salad? Almonds and a raspberry vinaigrette. I love taters, both sweet and not, and eggplant is also a favorite. But imagine the deep sorrow I felt when spying chocolate on that list.  Just kill me. Luckily I can have all the bok choy I want.

I’m trying not to jump the gun, maybe they’ll come back and tell me that mine is a result of not enough of something  - “We’ll have to ask you to double up on your popcorn consumption.”  Ever the optimist. Anyway, the dr’s office will call Monday to schedule my surgery and there is a light at the end of the tunnel.  I don’t do this sort of stuff well, I default to denial and I’m fine, and soldier on.  I’d rather try a hundred folk remedies before visiting a doctor or, heaven forbid, having a procedure of any type. If I thought wrapping my abdomen in linen soaked in hog fat and sleeping with a penny under my pillow during a full moon would work, I’d try it.  Mickey insisted that I go, and I guess I’m glad he did.  Honestly, my prominent emotion right now is gratitude that this didn’t happen while we were in Chincoteague and that I was able to spend Halloween with my favorite girl.  The universe gave me a pass until November 1st so I could enjoy my favorite month.  Can’t beat that. So that’s what’s up here on our patch. I feel like I’ve been sick or broken since we moved and that’s just not me. I’m buoyant and happy and healthy - at least I used to be!  I’m over it, I’m done. Let’s get through the rest of this year and wipe the slate clean.  FRESH START. And now, because I haven’t kept a meal in my stomach since Halloween but have managed to hold on to four crackers today (victory!), I’m going to attempt some chicken soup. Sounds like a feast right now. I’ll keep you posted, crossing my fingers that all the news is good from now on. Stay safe, stay well, mind your oxalates.

Keto Diet and Keto Strips

1. Introduction to the Ketogenic Diet

The ketogenic diet, commonly known as the keto diet, is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet that has gained significant popularity in recent years. Its primary goal is to induce a metabolic state called ketosis, where the body burns fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates.

Key Principles:

High fat intake (70-75% of daily calories)

Moderate protein intake (20-25% of daily calories)

Very low carbohydrate intake (5-10% of daily calories, typically 20-50g per day)

2. The Science Behind Ketosis

Ketosis is a metabolic state in which the body primarily uses ketone bodies, derived from fat, for energy instead of glucose from carbohydrates.

Process:

Carbohydrate restriction leads to decreased insulin levels

The body begins breaking down stored fat for energy

The liver converts fatty acids into ketone bodies

Ketones become the primary fuel source for many tissues, including the brain

3. Potential Benefits of the Keto Diet

Proponents of the keto diet claim various health benefits, including:

Weight loss

Improved insulin sensitivity

Reduced inflammation

Enhanced cognitive function

Potential neuroprotective effects

Management of certain neurological disorders (e.g., epilepsy)

4. Potential Risks and Side Effects

While the keto diet can be beneficial for some, it's not without risks:

"Keto flu" (initial adaptation symptoms)

Nutrient deficiencies

Increased risk of kidney stones

Potential negative impact on heart health due to high saturated fat intake

Difficulty maintaining long-term adherence

5. Foods to Eat on a Keto Diet

Encouraged:

Fatty meats (beef, pork, lamb)

Fatty fish (salmon, mackerel, sardines)

Eggs

High-fat dairy (cheese, butter, cream)

Nuts and seeds

Avocados

Low-carb vegetables (leafy greens, broccoli, cauliflower)

Healthy oils (olive oil, coconut oil, avocado oil)

Limited:

Berries (in small quantities)

Dark chocolate (high cocoa content)

Avoided:

Grains and starches

Sugar and high-carb fruits

Legumes

Root vegetables

Most processed foods

6. Keto Strips: An Introduction

Keto strips, also known as ketone test strips, are tools used to measure the presence of ketones in urine. They are primarily used by individuals following a ketogenic diet to monitor their state of ketosis.

7. How Keto Strips Work

Keto strips contain a reactive pad that changes color when exposed to ketones in urine. The color change is then compared to a chart on the strip container to estimate the level of ketones present.

Process:

Urinate on the strip or dip it in a urine sample

Wait for the specified time (usually 15-60 seconds)

Compare the color of the strip to the chart provided

Interpret the results based on the color match

8. Types of Ketones Measured

There are three types of ketone bodies:

Acetoacetate (AcAc) - primarily measured by urine strips

Beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) - measured by blood ketone meters

Acetone - measured through breath analyzers

Keto strips specifically measure acetoacetate in urine.

9. Interpreting Keto Strip Results

Keto strips typically provide a range of results:

Negative (0 mg/dL)

Trace (5 mg/dL)

Small (15 mg/dL)

Moderate (40 mg/dL)

Large (80 mg/dL)

Very large (160 mg/dL)

For most individuals following a keto diet, a result of "small" to "moderate" is considered optimal for nutritional ketosis.

10. Advantages of Using Keto Strips

Non-invasive method

Relatively inexpensive

Easy to use at home

Provides quick results

Helpful for beginners to confirm entry into ketosis

11. Limitations of Keto Strips

While convenient, keto strips have several limitations:

Accuracy can decrease over time in ketosis

Results can be affected by hydration levels

They don't measure blood ketone levels directly

They may not reflect real-time ketone production

Results can be influenced by certain medications or supplements

12. Alternative Ketone Measurement Methods

For more accurate or comprehensive ketone monitoring, consider:

Blood ketone meters (measures BHB)

Breath ketone analyzers (measures acetone)

Laboratory blood tests (most accurate but least convenient)

13. Tips for Using Keto Strips Effectively

Test at the same time each day for consistency

Follow proper hydration practices

Use in conjunction with other indicators of ketosis (e.g., energy levels, appetite changes)

Don't rely solely on strip results to gauge diet effectiveness

14. When to Use Keto Strips

Keto strips can be particularly useful:

When first starting a ketogenic diet

After consuming higher carb meals

When experiencing symptoms of ketosis

To check ketone levels during fasting periods

15. Beyond Keto Strips: Other Signs of Ketosis

While keto strips can be helpful, other indicators of ketosis include:

Decreased appetite

Increased energy and mental clarity

Weight loss

Changes in breath odor

Increased thirst

Short-term fatigue or "keto flu" symptoms during adaptation

Conclusion

The ketogenic diet is a unique approach to nutrition that can offer potential benefits for some individuals. Keto strips serve as a useful tool for those embarking on this dietary journey, providing a simple way to monitor ketone levels. However, it's important to remember that they are just one piece of the puzzle. A holistic approach, considering overall health, well-being, and sustainable lifestyle changes, is crucial when adopting any new dietary regimen. As with any significant dietary change, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before starting a ketogenic diet, especially for individuals with pre-existing health conditions.

Understanding Urine Test Strips: A Comprehensive Guide

Urine test strips, also known as urine dipsticks or urinalysis test strips, are simple yet powerful diagnostic tools used to analyze urine samples for various health indicators. These strips contain several chemical pads that change color in response to specific substances present in the urine, providing valuable information about a person's health. Understanding how urine test strips work and what they can reveal is essential for healthcare professionals and individuals monitoring their health.

What Are Urine Test Strips?

Urine test strips are thin plastic strips with several chemical pads attached to one end. These pads contain reagents that react with specific substances in the urine, causing them to change color. The color changes are then compared to a color chart provided by the manufacturer to interpret the results.

What Can Urine Test Strips Detect?

Urine test strips can detect various substances in the urine, including:

pH: Indicates the acidity or alkalinity of the urine, which can be affected by diet, medications, and certain medical conditions.

Protein: Presence of protein in the urine can indicate kidney damage or other health issues.

Glucose: High levels of glucose in the urine may indicate diabetes or other metabolic disorders.

Ketones: Presence of ketones in the urine may indicate diabetic ketoacidosis or starvation.

Blood: Presence of blood in the urine may indicate urinary tract infections, kidney stones, or other kidney disorders.

Bilirubin: Presence of bilirubin in the urine may indicate liver disease or other conditions affecting the liver.

Urobilinogen: Presence of urobilinogen in the urine may indicate liver disease or hemolytic anemia.

Nitrites: Presence of nitrites in the urine may indicate a urinary tract infection.

How to Use Urine Test Strips

Using Urine test strips is relatively simple. The strip is dipped into a urine sample, and after a few seconds, the color changes on the pads are compared to the color chart provided by the manufacturer. The results are then interpreted based on the color changes.

Interpreting Urine Test Strip Results

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Kidney Patient Diet Chart

A kidney patient diet chart often referred to as a renal or kidney-friendly diet, is a crucial component of managing various kidney-related conditions, including chronic kidney disease (CKD), kidney stones, and kidney failure. The primary goal of this specialized diet is to reduce the workload on the kidneys, manage fluid and electrolyte balance, and promote overall health. In this 1100-word paragraph, we will explore the key principles and recommendations for a kidney patient diet chart.

Consult with a Healthcare Professional: Before starting any dietary changes, it's essential to consult with a nephrologist (kidney specialist) or a registered dietitian who specializes in renal nutrition. They can assess your specific kidney condition, stage of CKD, lab results, and individual needs to create a personalized kidney patient diet plan.

Control Protein Intake: In the early stages of CKD, the kidneys may have difficulty processing excess protein waste products. Therefore, a kidney patient diet typically recommends moderating protein intake. High-quality protein sources like lean meats, fish, poultry, and plant-based proteins such as beans and tofu are preferred. The amount of protein needed may vary based on your stage of CKD.

Monitor Sodium (Salt) Intake: High sodium intake can lead to fluid retention and elevated blood pressure, both of which can strain the kidneys. Reducing salt in your diet is essential. Avoid processed foods, canned soups, and excessive use of table salt. Instead, use herbs, spices, and low-sodium seasonings to flavor your meals.

Limit Potassium-Rich Foods: For individuals with advanced CKD, high levels of potassium in the blood can be problematic. Limit foods like bananas, oranges, potatoes, tomatoes, and dried fruits. Cooking certain vegetables can help reduce their potassium content.

Manage Phosphorus Intake: Elevated phosphorus levels can occur in CKD and may lead to bone and heart issues. Avoid phosphorus-rich foods such as dairy products, processed foods, and colas. Read food labels to identify phosphorus additives.

Choose Kidney-Friendly Carbohydrates: Opt for complex carbohydrates like whole grains (brown rice, whole wheat bread) instead of refined sugars and sweets. These complex carbs provide energy without causing rapid blood sugar spikes.

Adequate Fluid Intake: Kidney patients often need to manage their fluid intake, especially in advanced stages of CKD when the kidneys struggle to filter excess fluids. Consult your healthcare provider or dietitian to determine the appropriate daily fluid allowance for your condition.

Portion Control: Managing portion sizes is essential to avoid overloading the kidneys with excess nutrients. Smaller, more frequent meals can help maintain stable blood sugar levels and reduce the workload on the kidneys.

Incorporate Healthy Fats: Include sources of healthy fats like avocados, olive oil, and nuts in your diet. These fats provide essential nutrients and support overall health.

Calcium Management: Kidney patients may require calcium supplements, as CKD can lead to imbalances in calcium levels. Work with your healthcare provider to determine if supplements are necessary and at what dosage.

Limit Caffeine and Alcohol: Excessive caffeine and alcohol consumption can be taxing on the kidneys and may interfere with medications. Moderation is key, and it's best to consult with your healthcare provider regarding your specific limitations.

Customized Meal Plans: A registered dietitian can help create personalized meal plans tailored to your specific needs and preferences. They can also provide guidance on managing calorie intake, especially if weight management is a concern.

Anti-Inflammatory Foods: Chronic kidney disease is often associated with inflammation. Incorporate anti-inflammatory foods like turmeric, ginger, and berries into your diet to potentially reduce inflammation.

Consider Dietary Supplements: Kidney patients may need supplements of essential nutrients like vitamin D, iron, and B vitamins. Consult your healthcare provider or dietitian to determine if supplements are necessary and in what quantities.

Regular Monitoring: Regularly monitoring your kidney function, blood pressure, and other relevant health parameters is crucial. This allows your healthcare team to make necessary adjustments to your diet and treatment plan.

Plan for Dialysis: If you're undergoing dialysis, you may lose certain nutrients during the process. Your dietitian can help you compensate for these losses.

Individual Variability: Every individual's dietary needs may differ based on their unique health conditions, so it's important to work closely with your healthcare team to customize your diet.

In conclusion, a kidney patient diet chart revolves around managing protein, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, and fluid intake while also emphasizing balanced carbohydrates, hydration, and anti-inflammatory foods. Consulting with healthcare professionals, particularly a registered dietitian, is crucial to creating a tailored diet plan that addresses your specific kidney-related concerns. By adhering to these dietary guidelines and remaining dedicated to your kidney health, you can enhance your quality of life and potentially slow the progression of kidney disease.

The Best Kidney Stone Diet Tips for Prevention

Kidney stone pain is intense and has many causes, but your diet can make a big difference. If you want to prevent stones, here are 7 kidney stone diet tips.

Here are the 7 Kidney Stone Diet Tips

1. Improve fluid intake

You should drink between 12-16 cups of water a day, depending on your health. People with cardiac or renal issues should follow the advice of their doctors. It is best to drink enough fluids so that your urine has no color or odor drinking filtered water helps keep your kidneys healthy and can help prevent kidney stones, but if you like the taste of plain water, you should make sure to drink a lot of it.

2. Follow a low-sodium diet

Under 2,300 mg/day for people without high blood pressure or other cardiovascular diseases, with a maximum of around 1,500mg/day. • Higher sodium increases calcium levels and decreases the citrate in urine – which leads to

3. Stuff yourself with healthier, more nutritious food like fruits and veggies and fresh meat.

This is a great recommendation anyone can take to help prevent kidney stones. But it's extra important for people who are more at risk of having them.

4. It's good to mostly eat vegetables

Too many meat dishes can cause health problems. Cut down on the intake, beef, pork, poultry & seafood, etc. Eat 6-8 ounces of raw meat per day (about the size of your fist).

5. Keep your intake of calcium normal, by eating foods like eggs or dairy, for example.

Calcium from food can reduce your chance of developing kidney stones. Taking it from supplements can be bad because it can cause potential risks for high intake. It's best to just take it from food sources instead!

6. Get your hands on more citrus fruits and juices

Citrate found in certain foods can help prevent kidney stones from forming. Some citrus juices are particularly helpful for this, namely lemon juice, followed by lime juice and orange juice. Grapes are also an effective source of citrate.

7. Decrease the amount of oxalate-containing foods you eat

Oxalate is found in many foods like spinach, berries, rhubarb, beets, chocolate, french fries and more. - ADHW
