I pass one from time to time. I am going to schedule my next xray next week to check the status of mine. I guess it just depends on how long they are in there without me knowing on how long to pass one. I know i pass one when it hurts like crazy and/or it is really hard to push the urine out.

My one and only stone was felt starting at the kidney and over a few days moving down.
I began with 100 oz of water per day but then switched to guzzling a 20 oz pop bottle of water every hour. Right or wrong, that's what I did.

For future reference, when it comes to kidney stones, cornsilk tea will ease the passage. If you tend to get stones save your corn silk for that rainy day.
