Wasn't there a Pope of old that had his kidney stones removed and they were sold as bezoars(over and over and over)?? I can't remember his name but will look it up. I know I saw a picture of them in a book somewhere. Slraep |

| I'm a doctor and this thread is making me sick. I think there were a few cases of dead fetuses (incomplete miscarriages) getting calcified and staying in the body for decades before causing abdominal pain.

"Love is Friendship on Fire", that's a wonderful saying. In his case though, it would be more like he "Loves to set Fire to Friendship" Slraep Last edited by Slraep; 12-13-2007 at 11:09 PM. |

| I think that's actually the closest thing to pearls that humans can produce. Or maybe parotid duct stones - those are about the right size too ...

| No... the foetus thing already reached the high point... Not sure what could top that! YUCK!  Besides, the parotid duct stones wouldn't have a protective function, or would they? (imagining that the calcification process in the first case had one: to make a harmful foreign body palatable for the living organism around it, at least for a while). LOL! Still can't believe this thread is happening.  PS. folks, give Google a break on these things. I've made that mistake already and the images are lunch-wasting shockers. |
