Sister Diagnosed with Gallstones

[andrea2289]

Hi Shelley,

I am writing on behalf of my sister. She called early this morning in excruciating pain. Having had gallstones myself I knew what was wrong as soon as she described her pain. She went to the ER and they did a few tests which including a hitascan? and an ultrasound. They said her gallbladder is “so full of stones it looks like a mass” and of course they told her she should remove it.

She would like to try to get rid of them naturally but, when she talked to the doctors about it, they had nothing positive to say. They told her the stones can and most likely will get stuck and that it could be a ‘very dangerous situation’…which freaked her out.

I thought maybe she could start with some of the stone softening procedures and then some mini flushes? Do you have any suggestions for her under the circumstances? She said she would be willing to wait for the surgery and try some other things. She said she’s gone with them this long that few more weeks wouldn’t hurt…

Thanks!!

Hi Andrea!

If I were your sister, I'd start fasting, drinking the Cleansing Drink, apple cider, taking Lecithin, and order Julia's Gold Coin Grass, or chianca piedra. GCG will dissolve those pesky stones in no time! She'll need very large doses and it will taste terrible, but that's way better than losing your gallbladder for the rest of your life. Once she has the GCG she can start eating safe foods (low-fat, easy to digest).

When I had painful gallstones last year, 3 weeks of 1-2TBL lecithin a day cleared it right up. I'd had escalating suffering for over 6 weeks before I realized what was up, and had I known sooner, I'd have been on it like white on rice. It was just SO EASY with lecithin. The only downside is that for the first week, I didn't like taking it because I could feel it working on them and then feel them move around once they were small enough to do so. I did a lot of torso stretching and other good things to help them along whenever they'd start to hurt. Then, when the 3 weeks were over, I treated myself to a really nice fatty meal. Mwa ha ha ha ha ha.

The other benefit of lecithin is the amazing way it melts estrogen fat from your body. I had a tummy pooch starting to form, and it burned right off the first week. I started to get one again recently, and within 3 days of taking lecithin, a lot of the watery fat I'd built up was gone. Great stuff.

Wow...that is totally amazing about the GCG and Lecithin. I already have some lecithin on hand but not the GCG.

I'm in a similar situation as the original poster's sister. I've had attacks maybe once every 4-6 months, for the past couple of years (probably had 4-5 attacks now), and they have always been very severe pain (I am unable to hold or lay still), and the pain radiating to my shoulders, but they were over in 20-45 minutes.

This past Tuesday, I ate a VERY fatty dinner with not much else (ate junk food with my stepson, like fried cheese sticks, french fries and ice cream). Then watched a movie (slouched over the whole time). After the movie as I was walking out, I noticed that familiar tightness. It came on steadily over about an hour, and by 10pm I was in pain but not as excruciating as my previous ones. The only difference is, this one lasted until 4 AM!!!!! I kept looking at hte clock going, it HAS to start subsiding soon...and it just didn't.

Anyway, I went to my doc the next day who of course said "surgery is the only option" especially since I"m planning on getting pregnant sometime over the next year...husband having reverse vasectomy in 2 months. I said "are there NO other options, no diet, no medicine, I can take?" And got an answer of "NO". I had bloodwork done and an ultrasound and am waiting on the results of both of those.

But I hate the idea of losing an organ for the rest of my life. Its horrible! I want to do whatever I can, I'm just too scared to do a major flush. I think I'll start with the stone dissolvers and do the slower flush, and see how I feel. Maybe after I start to feel better, I will have the strength/courage to do a major flush.

Thanks so much for the info on these two products...I will try them right away.

Yeesh, don't let them take out your gallbladder. It's not fun. Some people get off with very few side effects, but others end up with constant diarrhea and digestive upsets.

Lecithin, GCG or chianca piedra, and ginger/peppermint tea are really all you have to do to bring the gallbladder back to a healthy state. Also good are carrot juice, high-fiber diet, cleansing carrot salad... all the options in the FAQ under Liver Management should be considered.
