Guest guest Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 Did I miss exercise in your regimen? If you have your gbladder out - I can find 5 people who are in tune with their bodies that now say they are not better off w/o their gbladder - digestion and b movements issue, along with indigestion and burping. They wish they kept their gbladder. bleecker2000 <stevel3474@...> wrote: > > >>>But I would like to try a few possible alternatives. > I'm not sure at all about the flush and using lecithan seems to > cause a soreness in my GB that concerns me. > I'm macrobiotic so I rarely eat very fatty<<< > > There is no signature on this, not sure who wrote it?

I think I do have a decent balance of fat,protein and carbs in my diet. When I said I wasn't eating a fatty diet I was referring to the usual " American on the go, part fast food, lots of fried foods, little in the way of fish or veggies " sort of diet. But yes, of course I eat fats - just not fatty fried in vegetable oil type foods. > Also, the tenderness you feel when using lecithan is probably > the fact that it is stimulating that area...not necessarily a bad > thing, but a reminder that you have some work to do to restore > the liver/gallbladder. I thought this was a possibility but was also being advised from a doctor in law that I should be really careful if I was feeling that same soreness I had in the aftermath of the recent attack I had - so afraid I might be making matters worse, I opted to stop any diet suppliments I had decided to try in my quest to treat my gallstones in some other way besides removing the gallbladder > Are you concerned about doing the flush?
