Guest guest Posted April 15, 2001 Report Share Posted April 15, 2001 << I have suffered for years since the last time I pursued this medically. I just got tired of doctors. Any info, ideas, or experiences shared would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jim ******************** Hi, Jim, I certainly feel for you, to say the least. I can only reply on this part of your question and I've only had a sonogram which showed stones. It's my understanding from talking to many countless others that a lot of problems don't show up in the GB. Only certain stones to, am I right everyone else? You could have a multitude of tiny ones and it's causing pressure or a buildup of sludge. In my opinion, I would do the cleanse. From everything you've said to me, it sounds like classes GB pain and problems. Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 15, 2001 Report Share Posted April 15, 2001 In my opinion, my cleanses (or also called flushes) have helped me a great deal, yes. Shoot, I could have an ulcer in there too, but I know these GB cleanses have helped me a lot. It's been about 3 to 4 weeks now, maybe I should get ready for another one. For some reason this time, even though I passed that loads of sludge stuff and some gallstones, I have felt better and no pressure on the GB. This is the 1st time I've felt this and no pressure feeling whatsoever on my Gb area. Is Dale or Ken around, what do you think? Should I do another one soon? susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 16, 2001 Report Share Posted April 16, 2001 Do the cleanses and start with 1 tbs flaxseed oil and 1 tbs lecithin granulate in the morning. I believe the veterans here would recommend that *smile*. Mineralsalts in water seems to be good too. You are very fit, you say. This means you exercise alot? This is just a guess from me, but I believe my bowel-bile problems started with to much exercise (running, swimming, biking, weightlifting). I did never replace the salts in the fluids comming out from my body during the exercise, and I didnt ate any fat foods, stimulating the bile flow. Lack of nutritions and salts as a cause? Maybe... do the flushes, it has helped me. take care /Maceo > I have several questions for gallbladders pros. I have had digestive > problems for many years.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2001 Report Share Posted April 16, 2001 Jim, For what it's worth.I had a x-ray,two ultrasounds ,1 CT and a hyda scan. My DOCTOR said " you have no gallbladder problems, so there's nothing that I can do for your pain " .I had lost 52 lbs in less than 6 weeks from 4 surgeries and 6 debridements as a result of an incompetent DOCTOR.And I found out later from the Harvard medical web site that this is what caused my GB problems.Any way, after the " hydascan " , I came home in a lot of pain and found Dr.'s protocol for Gallstones and I passed over 80 stones the following two days.My DOCTOR does not believe it, even after seeing them!!Since then,with the help from some of these " good people " from the GB web site, I have passed over 300 stones that wasn't there and when I watch what I eat I feel so much better!!!. I am not telling you to do this. This is my experience.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2001 Report Share Posted April 16, 2001 Hi Jim! The group has it exactly right... Maceo is right on target... If you went to a gb surgeon with you symptoms and health history... He would take your gb out. Often, gb surgery is done WITHOUT any definative stones showing. Choestorol stones are by their very nature translucent and often do not show on scans or sonograms. Your symptoms and history point to sludge. Sludge occurs for 3-4 major reasons: 1) Poor diet and too much cholestorol/fatty foods and too little fatty acids, fruits and vegies. 2) Being over weight... 3) A lot of exercise without replenishing the bodys fluids and salts. 4) No enough H2O taken thoughout teh day... Eight glasses of water a day will keep the doctor away! I am convinced that my gb stones/sludge is a result of a lack of water and fatty acids. I execise a lot with 2-3 times a week full court basketball. I am almost completely cured... at laest for the past 4 months! The cure can be found in the following: 1) Do 2-3 flushes over a 3-6 month period of time to start moving out the sludge. 2) Begin drinking an EXTRA 1/2 gallon of water each day. 3) Start taking 2 Teaspoons of flax seed oil for 2 weeks and then 1 teaspoon forever... each morning on an empty stomach in a little oj. 4) Add 2 Tablespoons of Lecithin also to your oj each am for a month and then reduce it to 1 Tablespoon forever! 5) Consider purchasing ox bile salst to replenish your bile salts after flushing! That should do it... You can mail the check for $7000 immediately. Unlike doctors I do give a money back guarantee and your money will be held in escrow until you are completely well!@#$#@! Just kidding! There are no guarantees in life... but I would give you a 90% chance at ridding yourself of the pain and discomfort and keeping you gb for the rest of your long life! You are classic of many that have been helped with the above advice... Almost forgot! Switching to more fruits and vegies... reducing bad fats, fried foods and meats is a requirement for long living and a healthy gb/liver. You will be surprised that once you have changed your diet you don't feel deprived... actually you wonder how you ever drank all that milk and ate that hunk of beef! Good luck and God bless... ken a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
