Guest guest Posted July 22, 2002 Report Share Posted July 22, 2002 Hi Everyone, Im writing in hopes of obtaining some advice. Last week, I had what Im fairly confident was a gall bladder attack. Except for upper back ache/pain (mine was in my lower back) and chest pain ( I had no chest pain), my symptoms are classic. Violent cramping, vomiting, pain on right side etc... Im planning on starting the GB cleanse tomorrow and have a few reservations. If someone could answer the following questions, I would be very greatful. Which is the most common GB cleanse? Ive read a couple of articles that require days-in-advance fasting (apple juice/green apples)before the ingestion of the olive oil/lemon juice/epsom salt. Is this neccesary? Ive also read a parasite and kidney cleanse should be done prior to the GB cleanse. Again, is this neccesary? Some articles require epsom salts. What does this do? One of my biggest fears is sending my gall bladder into overdrive because of the amount of oil taken. What if my stone is too large to pass? Is there a chance it could get stuck? Is the cleansing procedure painful at all? If so, is there anything that can eleviate the pain? I have visions of the night I had my attack and it scares me to death. I have never been in so much pain! Also, Im curious about other peoples " attacks " . Ive read a bit about it and couldnt find many people who had cramps that lasted well into the next day. Though the violent cramping lasted only until I vomited, I was plagued with cramping 15 hours afterwards. Has anyone else experienced this? Thank you all for listening to what are surely repetitive questions. I apperciate all input and hope to hear from someone soon. Kindest regards, Stacey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
