My husband has been going through the same thing for 2 years now. He is only 24 but his symptoms are the same: multiple uric acid stones a month. His doctors won't prescribe him anything stronger than Percocet so he had to go to the ER every time he has a stone. We have thousands of dollars in medical bills and the doctors have no idea what to do with him. I know this doesn't provide any help, but I wanted to let you know that you are not alone in what you are dealing with. I will be sure to post anything we come across that may help. There has to be something we can do.
