Well what's crazy is I have been doing the keto low carb stuff with lots of water. But the doc said protein and creatine can cause then.

39g of sugar in a 12oz can. For reference purposes, if you take 2 teaspoons of sugar in your coffee, that's 8.5g for a 12oz mug.

stones can develop if the consumption is abnormally high with tea, yams, tree nuts, chocolate, soy stuff, & black pepper.
Monitor your salt intake & see if you're taking in too much sodium.
You mentioned you're doing keto/ lo-carb, are you taking in a higher amount of proteins now? If you are & the protein is mostly [if not all] animal protein stuff, you may consider a bean/legume protein (peanut butter is a legume)

Tea may not be a huge factor to stones developing if the tea is loose leaf versus a bag. If bagged tea is used a lot, then yes, very susceptible to stones. Mainly because of the phthalates used to make the bag and what ever to preserve the tea in the bag.

Just went through this, The Dr. said it's compareable to a woman giving birth and that is no lie, excruciating pain. He said "next time drink beer or anything that makes you go a lot like beer or if it smells or looks like beer drink it and lots of it!"

But honey it's NOT a problem. ,the Dr said too.

Excessive protein intake is not good for kidney health. Get off that keto diet and eat more fruits and vegetables. Drink lots of water. Good luck.

I've had one, Doc said probably caused my drinking a lot of Pepsi and not enough water. Something about dark pops causes them. I woke up and thought my wife had stabbed me lol, went straight to ER and after three different pain meds I was wasn't ready to kill someone.

They gave me some med that made the tube from my kidney to my bladder expand so it was easier to pass. Mine came out 24 hours later. For me peeing it out was easy, it was it going from the kidney to my bladder that sucked.
