Hey Stella, listen --------------> 1/2 price sale the day after Xmas!!! It was a Balsm & Cedar potpourri tart that I was prying out of the tart burner hee hee hee and ker plunk, the knife slipped hee hee hee ---------> moral of story: to remove wax from a candle holder you put the WHOLE holder in the freezer for about 15mins and then it just pops right out!!!! And, is safe.
Stop N Shop makes a brand called Village Candle and that is great, too and cheaper!
So you all know that Yankee Candle qualifies to post on thyroid since it is my addiction since having to wait 9 very long weeks for my thyroid surgery in '07 ... I used it as a stressbuster.

That's what you get for being able to afford Yankee Candles. (Did I say that??)

My little tater............. such a clutz.
Hi. So sorry to hear about the kidney stone. OUCH! Though it's good that it passed. I truly hope your lab work turns out good for you. As for the bld and the WBC count on the U/A that could that be all due to your kidney issues? I hope you feel better none the less and you get some good results. Take care and BEST of wishes.
Good grief...sounds like you had a fun time! Not! hope the tests come back showing what you need to know!

No more sharp knives for you! lol

Hi Totie .. we know ea. other from MSK community. Uric acid is another type of kidney stone aside from the calcium oxalate ones you probably make. The Urocit-K is helpful to stop the formation of calcium oxalate stoens somehow by altering the ph of the urine, etc. The good news with uric acid stones is that they are treatable with meds to prevent them from forming along with gout .... alpurinol is the med I believe. The bad news is that they are "crystal clear" and elude sophisticated equipment being transparent they don't show up on ultrasounds and x rays .. not sure on CT Scans and MRI's. though.

Glad to hear your doctor actually treated you like a human, and not a file.
What is uric acid? I was put on potassium citrate for something in my urine, too much acid maybe, not sure. I go to the urologist Thurs. so I will try to remember to ask what it is for.
