Guest guest Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 No Mam, I have every right to point out the lunacy of interfering with the " normal " functioning of the human body, and the potential consequences thereof. Why? Because I get to see it everyday and try to help the people who have, through the process of regaining an amount of health and comfort with the now compromised body. I would rather have a vehement argument with you about the potential long term effects than have you wheeled into my place with a basketball sized tumor, a months to live diagnosis, a ten year old daughter, and a petrified husband. Considering that our dear lovely FDA approved HRT, and the incidence of breast cancer went down over 10,000 cases in the first year after the link between breast cancer and HRT finally became public in mainstream media (the science had been there for years), the concern that this newly approved abomination of science and medicine may have serious long term effects is very well founded. This is the point of this group. Whether you decide to keep your gallbladder or not is up to you, but when you come to this group asking for advise you are going to get it. While you may not like the tone of some, it is proffered out of love, caring, and in most cases experience. It is not normal to have torture, dehabilitating cramps, mood swings, migraines, etc. It indicates a dysfunction. And if 90% of the women in a particular culture experience this it may be the norm depending on your definition of the word, but not the functioning of a " normal " reproductive system. The above can be the consequences of gallbladder problems, hence fat digestion problems, hence irregular hormone production, etc. Caveat emptor. If you buy in to what either your government or mainstream medicine tells you without searching for the " truth " yourself, please look out for steep slopes.

There are many women who's menstrual cycle is a torture, plagued by debilitating cramps and migraines, among other issues. You have no right to insult anyone who chooses to take a drug that can better their quality of life. The same way no one should ever question you doing what you do. If the women choose to do it and take the risk to their life, so be it. You have no right to complain or say anything about it. Gabe > > Some doctors are recommending that women that are of supposed high risk of breast cancer prophylacticaly have their breasts removed. Our wonderful federal watchdog agency commissioned to protect you from bad drugs (FDA) has just approved a new drug to completely eliminate women's menstrual cycles (hormonally) for convenience. Keeping in mind that the number of new cases of breast cancer dropped by over 10,000 in the first year that HRT was exposed as causing it. Ludicrous. You can't keep lemmings from running over cliffs. -Dave > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Amber <mailto:amber@...> > To: gallstones <mailto:gallstones ><mailto:gallstones@\ <mailto:gallstones >> > Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2007 4:34 PM > Subject: Re: Question - people who had surgery > > > Holy toledo! I can't believe this! The GB serves an important function and you should do everything in your power to keep it. To " voluntarily " have it removed is unthinkable. You need some good fats in your diet. Read " Low-Fat Lies, High-Fat Frauds " by Vigilante, MD., MPH, and Flynn, PhD. Cholesterol meds are a scam to get more people to buy expensive drugs. A total cholesterol of 300 used to be considered normal until the pharmaceutical companies figured they could make a lot more money if they would lower the normal figure. Exercise to get your HDL up. Take antifungals (either Diflucan or Nystatin Rx from Dr.) or oil of wild oregano, apple cider vinegar, garlic, etc. Take A-F Betafood from Standard Process Labs for your GB. You say you'd rather lose your GB and hope ...what if that doesn't do it? Then you are worse off. Do your research before jumping into a surgery that you can never undo. > > Amber > > I'm going to voluntarily have my gall bladder removed.
