Did you see any stones? Yes, a headache (I'm guessing in the

front part of your head? Like above the nose sinus area?) is

common...the gallbladder meridian (chinese medicine terms)

that runs right through there, and is one place I really feel it during

night of and day after the flush. Yes, you may feel some discomfort,

may mean you need to do it again, may go away, let your body

tell you. I apply heat to the uncomfortable areas, and (especially

if lying on my back) it helps relax things so that more stones,

sludge, whatever, move, but yes, tenderness is normal...especially

this time of year with the holiday eating. If you passed a good

number of stones, and things settle a bit, you can wait anywhere

from 2 weeks to 6 months to do another flush. If you are

uncomfortable enough, you'll want to do it sooner than later.

It is common to get a headache. Possibly it's coming from the

release of toxins. I find that drinking lots of water the day of

the flush and in between the epsom salt drinks help.

It is also common to have tenderness in the GB area. You've

just " exercised " the GB a lot. It can also still be swollen from

the original irritation. Do another flush in two weeks and repeat

at 2 week intervals until you see no more stones.

The symptoms of GB problems do not all disappear at once, but you

should see a lessening with each flush. A castor oil pack is

supposed to relieve the discomfort that you're feeling. Also make

sure that you don't eat foods at the moment which stimulate the

GB. -look in the group's links and files for more info.
