Kidney Stone treatment?

Does anyone know of an alternative treatment for kidney stones? I’ve heard that
drinking about a pint (two pints?) of olive oil, then sucking lemons to get rid
of the taste will melt kidney and gall stones. It has to be done all in one
sitting. Anyway, my boss has got a kidney stone, so I thought I’d ask.

Thanks for any advice!

    Here’s one that worked for me:
    Cook up a pound of Asparagus tips and mash them up, eat the asparagus and
    drink six 20 ounce classic cokes (plastic bottles only) over a two hour
    period. I understand the the asparagus and coke combine to make the same
    chemical that doctors use in a I. V. to get rid of kidney stones. I have
    not had asparagus tips again. Good luck!

    I’m not a doctor, but I’ve had kidney stones and "melting” one would
    depend on the type of stone. The particular type my body forms would
    probably be impervious to that sort of treatment. It also might rot my
    stomach.
