Guest guest Posted February 23, 2002 Report Share Posted February 23, 2002 The question was: Why aren't doctors aware of the fact that stones are formed inside liver? Answer: If you don't want to be aware of something, then you just don't want, and nobody can help with that. Are there any data that prove fact that stones are formed inside liver? Answer: A lot, if you want to search for it. A friend of mine, Lillian, was working in a hospital in Oslo where surgeries are performed daily. She has seen files of hundreds of patients who came back with a pain, stone lodged inside common bile duct, AFTER gallbladder was removed some times ago. She has even read files of people who were coming back 7 times for the same procedure, once every year! Where do their stones come from? Gallbladder that was removed 7 years ago? I have read several stories of people suffering from the stone lodged inside common bile duct, sometimes just a few days after surgery, sometimes years after surgery. The only place where those stones could have been formed is inside bile ducts. If it is intrahepatic bile ducts, or it is common bile duct, we don't know, but most likely it is intrahepatic bile ducts. Regardless, the fact is, bile ducts can hold bile, bile can become stagnant, and stones can be formed inside bile ducts. If you are unable to understand this, or to accept this, then I can't help you. Do you need more proof that stones are formed inside liver? Why aren't doctors aware of the fact that stones are formed inside liver? There are 3 possible answers: 1. They are stupid and unable to make that conclusion (most likely not). 2. They are smart but they don't want to risk loosing patients or don't want to go against the mainstream. 3. They are smart but someone told them not to think too much about that, if they want to keep their job. You pick the answer(s) that most likely describes your doctor.

My job is to assist the doctor, with images, while doing the surgery. I really don't inter-act with the patient much after sugery except for an occasional post op film. I can tell you about the surgery itself since I am there through the whole thing and can watch on the tv screen (laproscope) while the gallbladder is removed. I am an x-ray tech and I run a c-arm during surgery. The c-arm is a mobile florascopy machine that takes real time images of the body so the doctor can check for problems in the bile ducts. It does the same thing as the machines used in the x-ray department for upper and lower gi's. After removing the gallbladder the doctor will inject contrast media (dye) in to the bile ducts which causes them to show up on x-ray. This is usually done after the actual removal of the (usually healthy looking)gallbladder. The thing that concerns me most about this procedure is that it is routinely done on very young people, early 20's and younger. Some doctors are very rough with the contents of a persons abdomen. Pulling and tugging on your insides like that can't be good, not to mention the cauterizer, it actually burns the tissue that holds the gallbladder to the liver to prepare for it's removal. It is not a proceedure that I want to go through! > Do you know of any negative side efect of surgery ? There are negative side effects to all surgeries! I believe in avoiding surgery at all cost. I have seen some real doctor " flub ups " on pt's. Sometimes, though rare, fistulas are formed between organs after surgery or they can be spontaineous for someone who is very ill. One very serious case was a woman with a fistula between her lung and colon. The doctor discovered this situation while the pt was undergoing a lower gi and started coughing up barium. Pretty gross, huh? She had also been complaining of very bad breath. This was a case where the woman had surgery on her colon and in the process of healing itself the body formed a fistula. I can't say that I have any clinically proven things I can tell you but I do know a young woman who had her gallbladder removed a few years ago. She is in the ER quit often with chest and abdominal pain. I can't say that this is a result of her gallbladder surgery, but I highly suspect it is, considering she is in her early 20's and otherwise very healthy. > Does it happens that people come again for surgery, because of stones inside bile ducts ? Well, stones in the bile ducts is a common occurence. In a county community of around 40,000 people our department does about 10 ercp's a week. About half of those have a stone in the bile ducts. Some have had gallbladder removal and some have not. So with or without gallbladder removal stones are still a problem. Why remove the gallbladder if it won't solve the problem! duh!!! > Do you know what percentage of people develop irritable bowel syndrome after gallbladder surgery ? I really wouldn't know about this one but the woman I mentioned earlier does have collitis. > Do you know if there is any link between gallbladder surgery and heart diseases - heart attack ? I wish I knew, but it would make sense that this could happen considering the contents of gallstones. Gallstones being a sign of bad diet choices. The truth about healthcare is that most people see a specialist for this surgery and after the gallbladder is removed they usually go back to thier family doctor and are referred to another specialist for diffrent problems, so tracking the connections would be almost impossible. I hope this info helps. ===================================== ===================================== http://curezone.com/forums/message.asp?MessageID=521 & ForumID=4 & P=17 Subject: possible stone in bile duck From: andrea < andrea_skates@... > Date: Today 12:46 Feb 22 2002 I have been experienc pain which is similar to the discomfort I had when I had my gallbladder out.

I'm a 44 yr. old female. I was still having " attacks. " My surgeon said I needed an ERCP because he thought I still had a stone stuck in the common bile duct. I didn't want to go through another medical procedure, so I did the liver cleanse. I was in severe pain if I ate any fat. The first cleanse brought immediate relief- I followed Dr. Hulda 's cleanse exactly and passed many stones. Two weeks later I did another cleanse and I've been pain free and symptom free ever since. I've done a total of 6 cleanses and am still passing stones. I don't know how to answer your questions about taking your medications, but I do know that the cleanse will flush out any stone in the common bile duct. I would think that an ERCP would be able to diagnose a more severe problem--like one involving the pancreas--one person posted that they had a stone stuck in the pancreas, and needed more surgery.

I was hospitalized in Dec with gallstone attack, since then still having pain, lots of it. Dr believes one is stuck in common bile duct wants to do ERCP. Can I do this flush while in pain? Do I need to do the parasite flush first? I'm running out of time. Had a miserable time sleeping last night with pain. I don't know what to eat so I don't experience so much pain. Help. Had gallbladder removed back in 94. Please help ===================================== ===================================== From: Sara Klein Ridgley, PhD SaraKlein@... I tend to agree with you somewhat on the nature of the soluble stones. However, when I did the cleanse both for myself and with clients, what I found was both kinds were there. In several cases where the people were scheduled for gallbladder surgery and we did the cleanse beforehand, there was no sign of the stones upon ultrasound scan. One woman, who was 86 at the time (11 years ago), collected the stones (that were rock hard) and put them in a jar, and took them to her physician. She announced that " this doctor from America (I was visiting another country when this happened...) took my stones out " . The doctor first thought that she was nuts, but when she showed him the jar, he went white in the face. Then he ordered another ultrasound and found the gallstones that were there the week before were gone. This woman is still alive and kicking happily and in good health! I have noticed, for example, that many, many people who undergo gallbaldder removal surgically, become depressed shortly thereafter. I also have thoughts and " speculations " regarding the energy/spiritual factors behind gallbladder problems, but that's another story.. I have used another flush, which is very simple, very safe, yet very dramatic, and even old people with various ailments can do it safely. However, I always like to observe, assist and take care that nothing strange goes on (My control issues? maybe, or just caution...). This one involves 5 days of preparation with eliminating all fat from the diet, and it includes epsom salts, olive oil and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice. I usually do a kidney cleanse prior to the liver/gallbladder flush, which dramatically improves the body's ability to handle the flush.----- ============================================================ ============================================================ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
