Guest guest Posted December 11, 2005 Report Share Posted December 11, 2005 I have been scouring the internet and all the curezone forums regarding the cleanse (looking at the one with Coke as it was recommended by a friend). I went in with a fairly gripping pain and what i thought was something with my heart and, instead, an ultrasound found 2 large gallstones. Of course, they set up an appointment with a surgeon later that day and she said to set up another appointment after the pain meds wore off and I could give informed consent (good for her). When they did they ultrasound, the tech said the stones were 2 cm and that they were mobile and possibly some sludge as well. I have had 2 friends with severe complications (pancreatitis, and impaired pancreas function) due to gallbladder problems that escalated before they sought medical attention. Both of them had their gall bladders removed and have suffered from digestive problems complicated by their pancreas problems. So I am kind of freaked out about this stuff! I don't like surgery and certainly don't want to end up with digestive problems, so I would try other things like this flush but I am afraid that the tech and doctor said the stones were large and I wouldn't be able to pass them. I have seen larger stones passed on the cure zone site and possibly just need some reassurance that I won't end up in emergency if I try to flush them out. I just don't want to end up like my friends, one who was in a coma for 5 days, and the other who was in the hospital for a month before they could even operate due to infection of other organs. Also, I have had hemorhoid surgery and am concerned about all the flush causing problems there...the last time I dealt with hemorhoid surgery it landed me in the hospital for 5 days just to deal with the unbearable pain. So if there is anything I can do to minimize that issue?? Thanks in advance for any replies/advice... Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
