rr6527 -“I do not have any medical proof on this, but it worked for me. As far as I know there are not any guidelines for prevention. My own urologist did not believe in cutting calcium out of my diet (dairy foods etc), so I still eat whatever I want.”
There are a few different type of stones, but a workup on them is only recommended for recurrent stones. One of them is a condition called hypercalcemia (too much calcium). The reason your doc didn’t say cut calcium out of the diet because e/o has to have calcium. In your case the extra Ca was caused by the water, so eliminating the water solved the problem. Most cases of hypercalcemia have nothing to do with how much calcium you are injesting.
