I have 2 kidney stones, 3 mm each, and have had two flares, one landing me in the hospital, the other today. I have heard that using baking soda will help dissolve them. My kidney is already swollen and I just can't bear going thru this again. I am taking Flomax and pain meds and drinking lots of water. Will the baking soda remedy really work or is just a wives' tale? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My urologist appointment isn't for another week. Thank you much!!
