Guest guest Posted October 6, 2003 Report Share Posted October 6, 2003 Hello..I was diagnosed with gallstones in 2000. At the time, I was having an *all over* organ ultrasound, which my doctor had organised as I have Hepatitis C. Gallstones were an *incidental* comment from the radiographer. " Multiples & sludge " ..it read...ugh. Anyway, as far as I knew I'd never been symptomatic. I had an *attack* about 12 months after being diagnosed with Gstones. Thought I was having a heart attack as I had acute pain in the heart region. It lasted 24 hours or so. I caught a cab to the hospital as I could not drive. At emergency, they didn't really know, but said it definitely was not the heart. I suggested the gall & they said yes..could be. Anyway, about a week after the attack... I found out about liver flushes through a friend. She & her daughter had done several. Immediately, I did 6 flushes over a period of 12 months as suggested by Hulda e. First one..I did without epsoms...eating organic apples and juice till 2pm. I am pretty sure there were over 50 or so in there..but couldn't be sure. I extricated several & dissected them...I was amazed..cried in fact & felt great...lots of energy for weeks. The next 5 flushes...I used the epsoms, which..although ghastly..cleans you out..so the stones are buck naked. I was mightily impressed by the flushes..and after each one..felt so energised and cleansed. I thought I could not bear another flush though..as the concoction is so horrid to drink. I hoped they were all gone..as I probably passed way over 500 stones over the 12 month periuod..in different shapes and sizes. However, recently I became extremely fatigued, more so than usual. I was sleeping 16 hours a day, developed a permanent migraine, nausea, bloated abdomen, a static digestive pattern..(no gurgling) & the fatigue.. foggy thoughts..depression. I decided to get the damn thing out...the GB. I booked in for surgery..felt defeated...was on a waiting list. Luckily...my number did not come up for 3 months..(3rd Oct). Meantime...I couldn't bear the migraine & associated symptoms any longer..as I felt miserable. So...I braved another flush (phew). All symptoms disappeared overnight!! Felt good again..passed about 50 little stones & chaff. I felt one go *bloop*, out of the duct not long after drinking the olive oil. They were ready to pop out!! My daughter who is 23, did the flush with me. She passed at least 50 bright green emerald ones. She vomited in the morning..with her 3rd dose of epsoms..so she didn't drink the 4th dose. I admired her tenacity to carry it through. She was a different person afterwards. Happy, cheery chatty..animated...busy. She's been very lethargic & grumpy with mood swings for a very long time. The flush really improved her mental state for a while. Meanwhile...I went to a herbalist..and am now on a herbal tincture to break up calcified stones which I assume I have in there. I found this group in the middle of the last two flushes..and really appreciate the links to other sites. I also enjoyed reading Dale initial story & Q & A page. Lots of information there. I am researching the gallbladder more now..I go to Curezone.com regularly for information. Last week, I did another flush..passed just small ones this time..and broken dark bits. Also some icky looking sludgey stuff..not sure if that was from the gb or the bowel..confused me. I can only assume that the tincture is working? Hope so. I still have the gallbladder pain..just a niggling dull pain where the gallbladder is...it comes and goes.. & sometimes pain in the pancreas area..it's only mild pain....but this could be because I have the Hep c. Still trying to figure it out. It's so hard to get information from the docs!! I am however, braving the liver specialist again this week. I managed to retrieve a few small green stones and shall take them with me..and present them if the climate is friendly. Every time I have mentioned liver flushes to any of my doctors..they move on to the next subject as if I had never spoken. I guess they are like Dr. Weil (online doc)..who thinks we are passing *globs of olive oil*? Good grief...what a silly uninformed thing to say. We know the truth & that's all that matters I feel. That's all for now....Jilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
