Hi all... I have been lurking on this board for a while and posting every now and then. I am going to begin my Liver Flushes next month after I finish my parasite cleanse. I recently had a HIDA scan done and my gallbladder is only functioning at 20%. My symptoms (for 3 years now) have been constant nausea, fatigue, headaches, bloating and cramping, and as of recently, mild pain in the gallbladder area. I have tried many treatments for things such as candida, parasites, mercury toxicity, and others, and have not seen any change in my symptoms. Is is possible that my gallbladder and liver have been the problem all this time? I know that flushing will help me, but will that get my gallbladder to actually function more normally? Also, what causes that gallbladder to lose its function in the first place? Is is because of stones that have come from the liver, or sludgy bile? None of this showed up on an ultrasound I had done. Any help is really appreciated.
Also wanted to thank everyone who posts with their flush experiences. It makes a scary first flush seem a little less intimidating.

MoreThis is a reply to # 96,839I was nervous about my first flush, but not any more. Nothing tasted as bad as I thought it would. Got out lots of little nasties too. Very worth it.
Best wishes,

I'm the same way. Someone came into the office w/ taco bell yesterday - of course, I was thinking burrito supreme please. But then it was like, woah, then again, not. I make this really great veggie chili that fulfills that need for me anyway. Gotta keep focused on the goal. Either that or run 50 miles after one of those meals.
As far as the jackpot, it was exactly like that when I did flush 4. I could almost hear the announcer saying " you've won 150 green pellets!" hahaha

This is a reply to # 96,836Possibly... A number of your symptoms might be related to your liver and gall bladder functioning..but without more information it would be impossible to say. It could be any number of organ systems or disease states.
It seems to me that you are 'guessing' or trying to diagnose yourself. That could be potentially dangerous. COnsidering your symptoms, I would think a good diagnostic workup by an internist might be in order... At the very least, I would get a SMAC 24 (a good blood work up) and a decent physician to interpret what your dealing with. The low liver function may be due to other factors or disease states.. OR could be the primary organ system that is causing problems. Again, without adaquate data, its impossible to tell.
Forgive me for this assumption but if you have had these symptoms for 3 years... what have you or your doctor been doing up to this point? Do you need another doctor? or are you avoiding and only recently started to go to a physician?? While non of your symptoms sound life threatening, if in fact, your liver is only functioning at 20%..THATS NOT GOOD.
There are SOOOOO MANY things that could effect your liver function that again, without some more history, it is impossilbe to determine WHY your GB & liver and struggling. THings like Heavy metals, Chemicals, poison, lead, alcohol, genetic predisposition, etc. etc. etc. Again.. Please get yourself checked out... YOU CAN NOT FUNCTION WITHOUT A LIVER OR WITH A SEVERELY DISFUNCTIONAL LIVER. Your liver FEEDS the gall bladder (concentrates bile salts & enzymes). Your liver and Gall bladder are seperate yet closely related organs.. you can function without a gall bladder but not without a liver.
Bottom line, you need a good diagnostic workup. This would include your spending some time looking at Family History, diseases or genetic predispositions. I am NOT trying to frighten you, but your body has been 'talking to you' for three years now (all your symptoms).. I'm just not sure what it is saying. Hense the purpose of the medical workup.- Re: sluggish gallbladder - what caus... hanna

My suggestion is, don't wait till next month, start flushing right away and do it every 2 weeks.
The gallbladder can heal it self.
The flush can be done while you do other cleanses at the same time. Just skip the other ones for one day.
Yes you can have a lot of different symptoms from gallbladder trouble.
You want to get the gallbladder in working condition as soon as you can. Make sure that you don't eat meat, cheese, Sugar and flour for awhile. Drink enough water.
My gallbladder was inflammed and the wall was 42mm instead of
3mm. My US after 10 months said both were healed. I have only 1 stone.

This is a reply to # 96,842I have seen many, many doctors in the past three years, both allopathic and naturopathic. I had so many tests done you would not believe. I think every part of my body had been poked or probed at some point in the last 3 years. This test I had done recently was the first test that has ever showed anything wrong, otherwise, I am told I am in perfect health. Also, it was not my LIVER that was functioning at 20%, but my GALLBLADDER. My liver is fine as far as tests are concerned, but my naturopath does feel that I have a congested or sluggish liver. I am definitely not trying to diagnos myself. Like I said, all testing shows my body to be very healthy in every other way, just the gallbladder thing. For the past 3 years, since starting to see many physicians only a week or two after this started, I have been going through treatment for parasites, yeast and mercury toxicity, mostly because those were the only things that were ever found to be wrong.

This is a reply to # 96,836My gb can store only 10% of bile. 90% is packed with stones. that´s why I´ve been flushing every two weeks, sometimes even in shorter periods.
Sluggishness is apparently connected with age(although i am 45)plus too many stones and of course with a congested liver.
By flushing we should be able to get rid of liver congestions and slowly cleanse the gb as well.
I´ve done 9 flushes so far and every time i do i realize how simple and effective it is.
Good luck

Read the new message at the top of the page.
Onogirl was also only around 20% on the HIDA test.
