Guest guest Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Hey all, Someone here earlier placed a post that kinda scared me. About the stones from the Gall Bladder. That sometimes when they are being flushed they can pass to the pancreas...is that true. I dont remember who it was, but it kinda scared me. They said they didn't want to flush and risk it getting stuck in the Pancreas, and having to risk going to the emergency room. Almost like they said it to scare us. I will look up the post. Has anyone ever had that happen to them. I'm sure a lot of people here are experienced flushers. To me the flushing sounds simple enough. But has anyone ever heard about this, and has this happened to anyone here. The reason it scares me is because I have a friend who's Brother has stones in his Pancreas. He didnt flush or anything like that, they were just there. He is in horrible pain, and no relief in site, poor soul. Well he was scheduled to have them lasered out, but his pancreas collapse, so they cannot have them removed. my friend says his pain is horrible, and he constantly takes pain killers. Have you all ever heard of this. Does anyone know if flushing at this point would even help him, or any doctor that could.I will link him to this group. One more thing. I am drinking a fresh lemonade sweetened with apple cranberry cider. Its delicious, and I drink it with my dinner, and it seems to help the indigestion. Its really apple cider (mostly) and a little cranberry. Plus I have been taking cascada segrada...that helps also. Lets not forget the major adjustment to my diet in general. I only used cold pressed Olive oil, no butter, or any other fat to begin with. No high fat foods, eggs, mayonnaise, chips, fried foods, dairy. Lots of water,warm foods, soups, teas...too many things to list. I'm learning. I am sceduled at the clinic for an Ultra sound at the end of March, it was the only opening they have. I don't have insurance, so I will have to suffer till they can test me. The gas and pain is still there, its just awful. Its good for a while then the wave comes and I am miserable. Hope they get a cancellation, and fit me in sooner. So I will keep learning and adjusting my diet as I go along to test reactions. For now it a bland boring diet. It gives me some kinda relief. I still think flushing is the way to go. Thanks for all your info guys, its the only thing thats been helping me find relief. You havent steered me wrong so far. It is all really appreciated. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
