Passed a tiny stone, crushed it with my curiosity.

So I have “multiple” stones ranging from 6-8 mm. Don’t know how long I’ve had them. I’ve been going to the ER once every year since 2018 from severe flank pain and every time I get an x ray there’s nothing. Until I pushed for a ct scan. Behold, multiple tiny kidney stones (ranging from 200-400 HU)

For the past two weeks, I’ve been trying to drink 4 liters of water. And use a strainer. My luck, I found a tiny spec of stone. It’s hard, looked like a kidney bean. Smooth also. So I saved it to send it to the lab.

But I got curious and wondered how would it look under the microscope. It Had smooth edges, greenish and looked like it was made of severe bubbles? I don’t know but it kinda looked see through. Got even more curious, wanted to zoom in with my cheep microscope. I didn’t worry about crushing it cause it’s a stone right? How brittle could it be?

Man was a wrong, when I tried to adjust the focus the slide got close to the lense and it got crushed and turned into sand.

I’m so disappointed lmao.
