Guest guest Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 Tina and all, my ultrasounds showed what they told me were a dozen or more of the " sticking size " or about 2 cm (see my message #16403 of a few days ago). I had apparently had one stone stuck in the common bile duct for 2 days prior to admission (waited too long) but passed it with some gyrations I did the day of the E.R. trip. The hospitalization that followed was for the subsequent pancreatitis. I had CT scans and X-rays but most of these kinds of tests are pretty vague and only tell you about " shadows " and " best guess " diagnosis. had to sign many medical releases because I refused the ERCP, the surgery, and many other tests. If they would have suggest a biopsy I would have thrown something at them! The Bloodsuckers! After several months of a dissolving plan, and several attacks, the stones I passed were mostly BB-sized up to pea-sized. My theory is that the 12 gallons of raw organic apple juice and herbs dissolved the " matrix " holding the stones together like an aggregate. In any case, much of my FEAR and ANXIETY melted with the stone passage. The dissolving plan really works. If you are afraid to do a flush, like I was after the shell-shock of the hospital, do several months of ACTIVE dissolving, treat any attacks that may occur, then do your cleansing when you are ready.
