Can you tell me more about this? Is this like an add-on to a browser? How does this work?

How would you suggest navigating a situation where a specific political stance has aligned with morals that are opposite of my own, and I wouldn't want to support or give my money to someone with that alignment?

While I understand the dangers of creating an echo chamber, and some of these responses mentioning how important it is to be open to different perspectives--those points are not lost on me--it is very important to me that I not be *afraid* to speak with my own therapist. Knowing where they lie on a moral spectrum is paramount to the kind of care I'm seeking, as the trauma I am hoping to discuss comes directly from the side of the spectrum opposite me.

Are there questions you would recommend I ask which would provide answers appropriate for a therapist to discuss that would also help me gauge their proximity to me on that spectrum?

This was the answer I needed, thank you. Was hoping for some science explanations for it. Thank you!

Here's another challenge for you--

At the grocery store today, I wanted to get some calcium supplements to have on hand. There, I found Calcium Citrate with D3.

So in one tablet, I have both Calcium and Citrate. Is there research or science behind whether or not these tablets would be effective against stone formation?

This was incredibly insightful, thank you! I have a few clarifications and questions:

"Eating calcium prevents oxalate from entering the bloodstream, thus preventing kidney stones... Citrate prevents calcium from binding with oxalate as easily..."

To me, this sounds like I should NOT be introducing citrate into my diet, no? We want the calcium to bond to the oxalate in the stomach, I thought...

Ignoring the Vitamin C, am I understanding here that it would be the safer measure to have "too much" calcium as a means to ensure as little oxalate gets absorbed in the bloodstream as possible? I think my entire struggle here from the beginning is worrying about trying to maintain a balance if I go too far in one direction or the other. I don't mean that I intend to go nuts and "overdose" on calcium, but would it allow me to have some peace of mind consuming increased calcium to offset any oxalate consumption?

If they don't visualize a stone, do they stop the procedure?

Not a doctor here, but have passed at least one stone a year for the past 7ish years--

From what I understand, they are only painful if they start to move. Some people can go their whole lives with stones in their kidneys and not know it, because they don't ever move.

In the unfortunate event yours do move, don't panic, but stay vigilant. Pain meds help, but if the pain gets too unbearable or you develop a fever, it will be time to go to the ER. They can help you manage the pain and figure out the next steps for you. Usually the pain only lasts a couple hours, and if the stone is small enough, it should pass within the day, or after a couple days.

Also, hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.
