Dale, You say you've done a fast several days before the cleanse. What exactly do you eat? I'm thinking about eating pretty light the next few days before my cleanse. Does this really help the bile buildup? Thanks, Susie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 Dale, Im not here to argue, everyone has an opinion, But if your stone is stuck and you are having symtpoms of jaundice or pancreatitis, I would think the last thing you should do is take a large anount of oil. I would think that this could possibly be harmful. The flushes are meant to be done by healthy people and if you are having pancreatitis or jaundice that is not healthy and the flush should probably be done when the symtpoms have resided. >From: " Dale " <Da_@...> >Reply-gallstones ><gallstones > >Subject: how to avoid stuck stones & Pancreatitus, Wally >Date: Thu, 15 May 2003 07:32:25 -0700 > > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >----- Original Message ----- >From: Wally Gordon >gallstones >Sent: Wednesday, May 14, 2003 12:03 PM >Subject: Re Tip on how to avoid stuck stones & Pancreatitus > >Only that flushes have bee known to CAUSE stuck stones, not to unstick >them. > >You wouldn't want to make the problem more severe, would you? > > >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> > >Wally; > >This statement is much too broad, and is inacurate.

This is one of the reasons given for the fast by Dr. so I have gone from that premise plus the fact that I've also had such good success doing it.

I will tell you however, that I was jaundice when I had gone to the hospital but then I'd been jaundice for years without having realized it. It simply was not as bad as when the eyes and skin have that truly yellow look,or when the urine is dark and the stools are whiteish, it was just my skin that was yellow and I'm of European decent so this should have been an indication of something wrong for some time. A stuck stone doesn't mean a person has to have an operation to have the gallbladder or the pancreas removed. There is a procedure where by they insert a basket and can remove the stone leaving the gallbladder and pancreas intact. Wally and I were not talking about the subject to which you have us pointed now. With Wally's broad statement I needed to correct that and that alone. You, however, are relatively correct regarding a stone that has become stuck for some other reason other than a flush having been the cause.

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 Well, I " got the notion " they were to be done by healthy people because I thought that is what Dr. recommended??? I wasnt saying that you should let a Dr cut you open, I was simply saying that it would seem like a wise thing to do to wait till your symtpoms went away, maybe not much for jaundice because that can be caused by many things, but mostly for pancreatitis. If you have ever had pancreaititis you would understand, when you have pancreatitis it is almost impossible to keep anything down and it is not good for your pancreas either. >From: " aluckower " <aluckower@...> >Reply-gallstones ><gallstones > >Subject: Re: how to avoid stuck stones & Pancreatitus, Wally >Date: Thu, 15 May 2003 21:10:47 -0400 > ><<The flushes are meant to be done by >healthy people and if you are having pancreatitis or jaundice that is not >healthy and the flush should probably be done when the symtpoms have >resided. > > >> > >i went through a stage of jaundice half way into the flushes. i had a >choice >at that point to either let a doctor cut me open or continue with the >flushing. the jaundice is much improved. i'm still not out of the woods >yet, >but doing better. everyone has to make their own decision as to what the >flushes are for. i disagree with you wholeheartedly that they are for >healthy people. i came to realize that the cause of the jaundice was backed >up bile. how to resolve this? continue flushing until normal bile flow is >restored. my symptoms were not going to reside by doing nothing, they were >getting worse and worse so i had to do something. > >where did you get the notion that they are to be done by healthy people? > _________________________________________________________________ Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
