Guest guest Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 Does anyone know if there is a link between gallstones and liver damage? I am still trying to figure out how I got the stones in the first place. The drs say because I was pregnant, but that doesnt seem like it could be a cause. The surgeon was very puzzled because I didnt fit their description of who has stones. They said I was the youngest gallbladder they had ever removed!! I was only 19 at the time and I weighed 95 pounds. One of my drs who is awesome has done many tests for different things. But I am thinking back to when I was 17 and I was poisoned, after wards I was very sick and had signs of liver trouble, white stool, pain.The drs wouldnt help me though they thought I had parasites and when they came up with nothing they quit looking. Eventually I got better physically, and then started to have " mental problems " , so I know whatever this was had a great effect on my body. Has anyone else had any liver problems or anything prior to the gallbladder problems??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2003 Report Share Posted May 19, 2003 Hi , Yes, I believe that there is a direct link of liver damage to gallstones. I found good info at Dr. Cabot's website. It used to be http://www.liverdoctor.com , but has changed to something like www.theweightdoctor.com She feels that a healthy liver directly impacts our whole well- being. A malfunctioning liver cannot clean the blood of toxins properly. An overload of toxins can also overload the liver and cause it to malfunction. There is also a link to surging estrogen levels and gallstones. - hence women during pregnancy and menopause often get complaints of gallbladder pain. ~Suzanne <rachelschurdevin@h...> wrote: > Does anyone know if there is a link between gallstones and liver > damage?

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2003 Report Share Posted May 21, 2003 Hi, I think that a lot of gallstones (liver stones) are formed by cells that sluff off the walls of the gallbladder (liver). The cells that sloughed off are likely caused by poor nutrition especially when one is pregnant. The baby is taking the nutrients out of the body. I now believe that if I had taken in more of the good fats while I was pregnant, I might not have been in the situation that I was in and might have had a better chance of saving my gallbladder. I would have had more time to research my health as I have done since then. Glenda remsmom01 wrote: > Does anyone know if there is a link between gallstones and liver > damage?
