XI- 18) – Renal stones and excessive water:
We collected 13 patients who presented renal stones actually or in the past, and for preventing new
ones, they drank an average of 3.100 milliliter of water daily.
These 13 patients with excessive water drinks consequent to renal stones, complained about:
- 9 patients (69.2%) worst their migraines at morning;
- 8 patients (61.5%) with wide frontal migraines;
- 7 patients (53.8%) with itching eyes or blepharitis;
- 5 patients (38.5%) with ocular migraines;
- 5 patients (38.5%) with tearfulness or Rhinitis with coryza (rhinorrhea);
- 4 patients (30.8%) with occipital migraines;
- 3 patients (23.1%) with photophobia;
And other lesser signs and symptoms.
Only one man did not complained of any sign or symptom.
The Etiologies associated these 13 patients with renal stones, were:
- 7 patients (53.8%) with excessive liquid drinks, with an average of 3,100 milliliter daily;
- 7 patients (53.8%) with excessive soft drinks;
- 3 patients (23.1%) with coffee, mate or tea;
- 3 patients (23.1%) with beer drinks;
- 2 patients (15.4%) presented shallow eyes anterior chamber;
- 2 patients (15.4%) with medications that raise the fluids pressures;
- 2 patients (15.4%) with wine drinks, and 1 simultaneously drank beer.
- 2 patients (15.4%) with familial glaucoma;
- 0 patient (0%) with excessive TV or computer;
- No one women (0% out of 8 women) worsened at menses.
These 13 patients with renal stones presented On the examination:
- 2 patients (15.4%) suspects of glaucoma;
- No patient with incipient glaucoma;
- 2 patients (15.4%) with advanced glaucoma;
- 9 patients (69.2%) with minimal Optic Nerves' borders edema;
- 2 patients (15.4%) with evident Optic Nerves' borders edema.
As caffeine is an etiology to the renal stones, we conclude that more than half of these patients
were causing their own stones by caffeinated drinks. As the patients also drink too much water
for the inefficient prevention of new stones, they worsen their migraines and glaucomas by both
ways.
This is a medical prescription to the patients suffering with Hypercalciuria and kidney stones:
“Dietary Treatment Guidelines:
Limit daily calcium intake to 600-800 mg/day unless otherwise instructed.
Limit dietary oxalate, especially when calcium intake is reduced. High oxalate levels are found in
strong teas, nuts, chocolate, coffee, colas, green leafy vegetables (eg, spinach), and other plant and vegetable
products.
Avoid excessive purines and animal protein.
Reduce sodium (salt) and refined sugar to the minimum possible.
Increase dietary fiber (12-24 g/d).
Limit alcohol and caffeine intake.
Increase fluid intake, especially water (sufficient to produce at least 2 L of urine per day).” (Leslie
SW)
Even this recommendation to water drink is limited to produce 2 Liters of urine per day, and include
a dietary limitation to tea, chocolate, coffee, colas and caffeine intake.
