Of course, he wants to remove it. He's a surgeon and that's how he earns a living. Let's just rip it out when he doesn't even know for sure that that's your problem. A different doctors sounds like a good idea. Don't go to a surgeon if you don't want to have surgery. Yes, do the flushes. I did 3 and passed stones for over a year. Had a second sonogram and I still have stones. I've only had one attack. I refused surgery and am doing fine. Many people who have a GB attack only have one and never have another one.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 rttell the surgeon to sit back and relax - he or she is a f'ing moron. You now need to do all efforts to clean you GB and liver. We will guide you but you have to do it yourself.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Did you experience a gallbladder attack? or any symptoms of having gallstones? Have an ultrasound first, if you are asymptomatic then why remove your gallbladder? Even you're symptomatic that's no reason to have your gallbladder removed.

I want to try the flush and then see a different doctor. Has anyone tried the liver flush and then had another ultrasound that showed that the stones were gone?

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 That's like asking a car salesman if you should buy a car! > > I have recently met with a surgeon who wanted to remove my gallbladder > even though he wasn't 100% sure that I had gallstones.
