Superb photo's and story, . Exposure to this should be in every

gastro-enterologist and abdominal surgeon's education. We would have fewer

doctors and more gallbladders.

Subject: To Sunny ~ Large Stone

>>>Hi guys, I am new here, but feel so much better just finding this group

and reading all the information. About 2 years ago I had an ultrsound and

was told I had a stone about an inch in diameter and needed surgery. I have

avoided the surgery by just cutting way down on fats and rich foods,

drinking lots of apple juice and eating lots of apples. But like ne, I

am afraid of trying to expel it before trying to break it down. So I will be

very interested in Dave's reply to ne re Beta TCP. Thanks for letting

me join your group. Sunny

Hi Sunny,

I live in a log home and liked looking at you rugged log

furniture at your website.

As for a large gallstone, I did pass a stone that large,

there is a picture of it at a link I'll add in a bit. It was a little

elongated, so may have been 3/4 " wide and 1 " + long

but there's a ruler next to it in the pic for you to judge for

yourself. It came out in a " clump " , very clean, with a

number of other smaller stones. I can't guarantee that it

will be easy for everyone, every flush is so unique, but

this one was pretty easy...maybe because the ducts

get a little larger? more flexible? with flushing?? I don't

know, it's a theory of mine, and have read over the years

of others on the list who have had ultrasounds after

flushing and been told the main ducts were a bit wide.

Here's the link, and my flush " diary " so to speak :-)

Have been doing this on and off since the mid 1980's:
