Cholesterol/elevated GTG

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I've been monitoring this site for a while. It's such an encouragment

to know others are flushing!

My story-

In Dec 99 I had a fasting blood test - routine checkup. My

cholesterol was high 230ish but what had my dr concerned was an

elevated liver enzyme - GTG 128. She said we'll check it out again in

3/6 months. I started researching elevated liver enzymes on the

internet. After establishing the fact that I really wasn't going to

die (joke), I decided there must be a link between cholestrol and gall

stones and liver enzymes. I came across Hulda 's website and

decided to do a flush (wondering if she were a " quack " or if it was

for real!)

I was a believer after the first flush (Jan 2000). I flushed several

hundred " stones " .

I did another flush sometime during the spring - great results.

In June - I had my liver enzymes checked again - my GTG went up 2

points.

In August - off to the liver specialist to see what they knew.

I don't drink ever, don't abuse Tylenol, crash diet, no tattoos, etc.

- no obvious reason for elevated GTG, so Dr decided to ordered some

tests.

She ordered a sonogram and blood work.

Sonogram was negative - blood work (10 vials and $947 worth) did not

turn up anything that would cause elevated GTG (no liver disease,

hepatitis, etc).

I told dr I thought it was gallbladder/gallstones. Told her about

flushes - she is not a believer - she said I must have been flushing

" poop " and any gallstones are hard . Since I was having pain in right

quadrant she ordered a Hidascan. If that turned out negative, they

would do something else (I think it involved a going down

throat procedure). If that turned out negative, she would send me

back to referring dr.

I decided not to have Hidascan - didn't like the idea of radioactive

stuff in my veins (full strength cold/allergy medicine makes my heart

race). The dr never told me the stuff was radioactive - she just said

" chemicals " . Of course, part of my concern is what if it is more than

just stones - what if my gallbladder is bad, etc. especially since I

have almost constant discomfort in right side - but hey, I figure it

took years to accumulate stones, it takes a while to get rid of them!

I continue to flush - and monitor this group

In Oct I had my cholesterol checked at a health booth - it was 199 -

normal. In 10 months time it dropped 36 points! No radical diet

change, or increase in exercise, plus I just completed one of the most

stressful years of my life. The only thing I can contribute it to is

flushing!

I am curious to know if anyone else has seen a drop in cholesterol

since they've been flushing?

I also want to do a parasite cleanse, just haven't done it yet!

anyway, " that's my story and I'm sticking to it " !

It's reassuring to know others are flushing and determined to keep

their gallbladders and try alternative methods!

thanks!
