I am a 36 yo white female suffering from recurrent brushite stones for the past 5 years. I have done numerous 24 hour catches, full blood work-ups examining chemical makeups in my body. I drink tons of water with fresh, organic lemon and still produce the stones. I have just recently started a low oxalate diet regime as well. Does anyone out there produce this type of stone? If so, do you have any prevention tips?
I’m a kidney stone producing machine and just found out what triggers the deficiency on citric acids and overproduction of calcium in my body.
Urologist prescribed a high blood pressure drug called Hydrochlorothiazide (I have low blood pressure) to reduce the production of calcium and a citric acid supplement I’m really not sure as if I should take this. I have to inject myself with B12 on a monthly basis which I need because I can’t produce it anymore myself and found out that this reduces the citric level. Then I came across Hypothyroidism and wonder if that is the reason for the high calcium production? Does anyone have suggestions on how I should approach the treatment or know about natural ways to get this in control? I do a low oxalate diet and avoid foods triggering my symptoms.
