Dear Eastern Medicine Type People

Dear Eastern Medicine Type People:

I have chronic Kidney stones. I have one really bad (i.e. Emergency room and good drugs) bout per year. The awful ache in my lower right back tells me that I'm very likely to have another bout coming up soon.

On Saturday, one of my best friends in the world is getting married, and I'm supposed to be taking photos. What can I do/take/press to make this ache in my back go away ... or at least postpone the inevitable attack?

Anything I can do at home is fine, and we have a really comprehensive natural foods/herbs store locally. Seeing anyone for treatment is right out, however.

Thanks!
