Guest guest Posted August 26, 2001 Report Share Posted August 26, 2001 First, thanks to everyone on this list. You gave me the information and courage to do my first flush. My first was on Fri, July 13. My last meal was Thurs. about 4pm. I did the usual 5 day apple juice drink. Then on Fri. afternoon I did several enemas to get thoroughly cleaned out. Fri. eve I drank the Epsom water at 6pm and 8pm. At 10pm I made the mistake of trying to chug-a-lug the olive oil/grapefruit mix. It did not stay down. I was upset because I thought the flush wouldn't work. I just gave it up and had some apple juice and ritz crackers and went to sleep. To my surprise at 8am Sat. morning I started passing lots of stones. I ended up passing well over 1000 stones!! I saved them in the empty a.j. jars (I had plenty!) All were the yellow type. The biggest was about 1/2 inch in diameter. I felt like a million bucks the next day. Two weeks later, July 31 I did my second. This time I drank the olive oil mixture slowly. I started at 10pm and took a big gulp every 2 minutes. (I mixed 1/2cup of each for 1cup total). I watched the clock and it took 20 minutes to finish it. I kept it all down, no problem. I took nothing to aid sleep. At 6am the stones started coming. And kept coming!! I passed over 2,000 stones. Mostly green, a few yellow. Quite a few 1/2-3/4 inch size. Mostly the size of a kernel of corn. They kept passing until 4pm. I was very exhausted at this time. I had some more a.j. and crackers and sleep. However, I felt terrrible for 10 days afterwards. It really drained me. I could hardly do any work. It was 3 weeks before I actually felt good. I am not sure why that was. My GB pain is a lot less, but I can still feel a few stones poking me. I am getting ready to do flush #3 this next week. I sure hope I get over it quicker. After two extremely successful flushes I am very excited about doing my third. It is truly amazing to see the stones. I definitely think its best to get cleaned out first so you can easily see the stones and scoop them out if you want to save/count them. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You are a great group. Patty (feeling 20yrs younger!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
