1 cm Gall Stone

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

I have a 1 cm gall stone in my gall bladder that was found with a sonogram. My

problem started about 6 months ago, and have been gradually getting worse.

Luckily, the doctor says there isn't any scarring nor swelling from the gall

stone. Since I've figured out this problem, I've educated myself on the gall

bladder disease and have come across several websites about cleanses and such. I

can see that the flushes work very well with small stones, but I'm skeptical

that they work for large ones, since the gall stone cannot fit through the bile

duct.

I know though that they can be reduced by drinking a combination of olive oil,

lemon juice, apple juice, and pineapple juice combined with a diet to keep the

gall bladder from constricting too much and wearing down the gall stone.

I am very concerned that by doing this, the stone may become small enough to go

through the bile duct and get stuck which could have been avoided by a gall

bladder removal procedure.

I'm hoping there is someone out there that has had a large stone and have

successfully worn it down and flushed it without complications. Has anyone out

there tried this???
