I'm sorry to hear you are discouraged after the 1st flush. But I can assure you that having your gallbladder removed is not the answer. I had mine removed 3 years ago and my health has gone downhill ever since. I didn't know anything about cleanses then.
I wish I had. I really didn't feel that bad just had two attacks but as long as I ate low fat I did fine. My husband and dr. just thought I should do it so I could eat anything I wanted (that's a joke). After the removal of my gallbladder I started having diarrhea after I ate. I had never had problems with this before.
I had to be very careful where and when I ate so I would be close to a restroom. Then I was diagnosed with celiac and have to totally avoid gluten (wheat, oats, rye & barley). That pretty much eliminates all grains and processed foods.
All the health problems I had before my surgery just got much worse. I won't go into detail but PLEASE don't have your gallbladder removed thinking it will solve ANYTHING. I know lots of people who still have attacks after the removal of their gallbladder.

Come on, how can you have done all of this research and still even be considering that. If you have it taken out, you may not have attacks anymore, but you will eventually have to deal with even more problems. Your gallbladder is there for a reason. Leave it.....please :)

To digest fat you do need enough bile, without the gallbladder you loose your extra storage.

Removing the GB: Is it worth it?
If I were you, I would ask this question.

It is always convenient to have someone take the responsibility for my health - oftentimes it is the surgeon or the allopath who recommends surgery.

When you turn to an alternative, something about their guarantees is not convincing you. And this forum is about each of us taking charge of our own health and working on it systematically - remember that the flush is more scientifically consistent than a surgery! That the allopath's Science is lopsided is another matter.

One point I like to make which I have seldom seen on this forum, which was the main reason I chose to flush:
We often overlook the psychological consequences of intrusive methods of treatment. If we insist that we are made up of object-components like gall bladder, liver...etc then we cannot explain why post operative Depression or emotional lows result. There is no explanation or solution for that in the allopathic system. And as far as I am concerned, what draws me to this forum is that I am addressed as a whole, and so I protect myself from disturbing any inter-organ balances.

FYI, I almost died of cholecystitis nearly a month and a half back, and my last sonography (day before) has emerged clean from calcified calculii. Thanks to curezone.

Hi Terri! I guess if you weigh the two, self maintenance and surgery niether is easy but I'd rather have my gallbkadder in tact and all the functons it performs ! Cleansing may be frustrating and difficult at times but if you think surgery ends the problem I think you,ll realize quite quickly the huge mistake you've made if you fall into one of the many statristics that follow the removal of your gallbladder! Starting with infections to lifetime diarrhia and the inability to eat the foods you like and the constant return trips to the docs! The potential for obesity and rheumatoid arhtritis! The incident of disease accurs much more in those with out than with ! Also not all those who have completed these flushes succesfully are posting anymore, although I wish they would,they have completed the flushes and are now healthy and have gone on with thier lives!
