Have not had the latest ones analyzed yet, however they are different from
the ones that I passed several months ago. Strange thing is that the latest
one grew so big and so fast. Had it broken up in the lipotripter and passed
stones by the hundreds after. Am scheduled to go to a stone clinic in
Syracuse NY later this month.
Strangest thing I also have stones in my gallbladder and prostate, and am
having problems with arthritus. I still think they are all related although
the doctors just look at me funny when I mention it.
Hope you have good luck with the pullers. They are of very high quality if
you ever compare them to anything else on the market. I believe you got one
of the 5 3/4" diameter pullers which will be the basis for my new hydraulic
puller. You lucked out George!
