Guest guest Posted March 16, 2002 Report Share Posted March 16, 2002 Does anyone know offhand how big liver stones can get? Maybe by the time groups is back in operation I might have found the answer, but in case someone knows right off the top of their heads, I'd like to know. thanks, rachel~ The truth is incontrovertible.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2002 Report Share Posted November 27, 2002 I cannot access the site you sent in. Please tell me what you mean by water pressure. I have no idea how to do this or where to start. Suppose the stones are larger then the duct opening? Can this happen? I am afraid I will end up in the hospital. Pearl (NY) Pearl, I'm sure that Dale can explain it a lot better than I can, but I'm here right now and maybe he's busy. I have my GB, so let me state this right off the bat, but anyone can pass stones, I mean anyone. They are also in your liver, yes. As a matter of fact, that's where most come from is your liver although some form in your GB. But yes, you can pass them safely. The epsom salts relaxes your bile ducts and it does this to most of your body functions. It's a know thing that ES relaxes your bile ducts. They are pliable just like most openings/ducts in our bodies. They can expand larger than what they are normally. If you've been on this message board for a few weeks, then you would have heard one girl who had had GB surgery and was having pain problems. The doctor told her than maybe her bile ducts were too small, and that he would have to go in and dialate them or something, whatever they do. Anyway, he was saying so she can pass stones. Get it? So she can pass stones? I was thinking like, Wow, he's saying that people pass stones and that her bile duct needs some work on it to make it larger. Well, this is what I'm getting at. It can be made larger and, yes, you can pass all the stones that you want. It will relieve the pressure. Now, I'm not a doctor, I'm just telling you from experience of doing cleanses and listening to people in the forum talk. I've heard lots of stuff since I've been on here myself. Dale is a dear person. He gave me the courage over a year ago to even do a cleanse. He was one person who did. After I did the cleanse, I thought, My goodness, what was I scared about, it didn't hurt at all and I passed tons upon tons of stuff. Then every time that I've done a cleanse, I pass something different. One time I passed some huge stuff, dark green with aqua streaks in it, which stunk to high heaven. And even though I didn't pass a lot of that junk, most of what I passed was huge, like 1 inch and over, several of them. I remember thinking, How could those things come out of me? The only thing that I felt afterwards was soreness. It was like I had done 50 sit-ups. But I also felt relieved and my shoulder no longer hurt at that time. So I'm saying, you may try the cleanse. Like I say, I'm not doc and don't want you to think that I am. I'm just here to give my testimonial about what happened to me. If you do the cleanse, who knows what you'll pass. If you do pass something large, then you may be sore around your liver the next few days, but if it's like me, it was more like doing sit-ups. That's all.
