Re: Stacey Raimundo/Actigall

[Guest guest]

,

This is correct you go on your average weight loss. Although there are many

that I have read about that even though they continue to take the actigall

they have still lost their gall bladder.

Since you have had your gall bladder removed. I guess I can ask you this

question....what are the symptoms that you had? I have been told that it

does hurt on the right side and you will have no doubt from the pain that it

is your gall bladder. If this is in the manual I don't remember reading it.

Thanks,

Kathy

Kathy, I was pregnant with my second child and kept having severe

pain right below my breast bone on the right. They kept telling me

it was heartburn. I couldnt even walk up the stairs, I had to

crawl. But after the birth of my daughter, guess what I still had

those heart burn pains, just as severe too, and after vomiting and

being really sick, I went to the hospital, had to stay and have the

gallbladder out. It has been 20+ years. And I still remember the

pain.
