Guest guest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Hi all, completed my second flush on the weekend again with hundreds of soft green/orange stones (but much smaller than with the first flush). Ernest, I tried the lolly sucking suggestion for the fourth epsoms dose but sorry, just couldn't stomach it - had to pass on taking that last dose. Anyhow, I've been thinking about my condition, specifically the fact that the stones in my gallbladder are 1) quite small - approx 3mm diameter (I think that's approx 1/4 inch) and 2) " heavy " i.e. they sink to the bottom of the gallbladder. Has anyone else had the thought that, while doing the flush, positioning one's body head down then rotating to the left side should move those stones by sheer gravity toward the bile duct and hence toward freedom (instead of having them sitting caught like coins in the bottom of a cloth purse)?? Now before you all crack up hysterically, firstly visalising the required movement and the difficulties therein (try to imagine yourself as one of those games where you try to get the ballbearings into the right hole) and secondly trying to imagine holding all that bloody oil in your belly while doing so, have a little muse on the issue. Has anyone else had this thought? Has anyone else tried it? Maybe there's a yoga pose or such that might help? I'm just jigging ideas around in my head to try and get this process sorted as efficiently as possible. My logic says that if I follow the procedure as written, I get all my ducts nicely opened with the epsoms, then get the bile flowing with the oil, then lie on my right side thus getting the stones as far away from the bile duct as possible, when really they need to be closer. Grateful for any input. I've found myself almost wishing for an attack because then I know there's a stone lodged that I can ease out with a dose of epsoms. Thanks for taking the time to read, really would appreciate commentry, thanks for this great forum. Cheers, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 3mm is smaller than 1/8th of an inch (25.4mm= 1 inch), these are smaller than a pea. Gravity has little to do with the position of the stones. The environment is controlled by the smooth muscle of the gallbladder (it is under tension all the time), however there are yoga positions that would be beneficial. Try magnesium citrate solution from the drugstore or grocery store, it far more palatable. -Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: <mailto:sennyjiff@...> gallstones <mailto:gallstones > Sent: Sunday, September 17, 2006 4:29 PM Subject: Exercise/body positioning?

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 I also thought about this position long ago, but did not express it. By the head down position, gallstones should expell easily. Gravity should help as it does in all other cases. Long ago, my frined's wife was not conceiving. He got the same advice, practiced it, and was successful. After intercouse, he immediately positioned his wife head down, and she conceived.
