Default Non conventional medicine that cures

Wondering with all the herbs and various medicine practices, such as Chinese, that don't rely on conventional drugs, what works for you.

I have suffered from kidney stones for years. I am well over 15 now and losing track fast.
I have tried diets and have tried hydrochlorothiazide, which is a blood pressure medicine known to help prevent my kind of stones.
Nothing has worked.

About the time of my last stone (roughly nine months ago or so, give or take), I learned of a product from South America known to have great properties for flushing calcium from the kidneys, benefiting the liver also and properties to increase your LDL (the good cholesterol). I learned of this via the weirdest of forms. It came via my dog's holistic vet.

I have been on this pill form of this herb known as Chanc Piedra, or Breakstone in English, since then. I glad to say I have had no symptoms (which I would normally get at least a few times a month as the stones moved). Crossing my fingers and hoping this relatively cheap herb pill ($25 for 4 month supply) continues to work.

Here is material on Chanca Piedra if anyone is interested. Will assist anyone with kidney issues in general.

Curious as to what works for others.
