Re: EXPERIENCE: ATTACK ! ..HELP! Gallstones Attack! Pain ... What can I do?

I have suffered gall bladder attacks every couple of months or so for about 3 years. My attacks measure 9 on a scale of 10 for pain. About a year ago I found the olive oil cleanse and have done about 11 of them. I get stones every time. Makes you wonder how big those organs are! I've been watching my diet and lost about 50 lbs since then and only have about 20 to go. I am improved for the cleanses but not yet cured. In fact, I started to have another attack the other day. Thankfully, I've discovered green tea is very soothing to the gall bladder. It's best taken hot/warm for all the obvious reasons. I've had it reduce pain in my gall bladder before, but for the first time, it actually warded off an attack. I was about 10 minutes into an attack, terrified of being in pain for the next 6 hours and ran for the green tea knowing if it failed, I would try olive oil next. I took a hot bath, drinking my tea and soaked about 10 minutes when suddenly, voila! The attack was over. I cleansed with epsom/evoo/lemon again in the next few days and got a lot more stones. I'm committed to cleansing until my screenings are clear. And then, once or twice a year after that. I hate gall bladder attacks, but even with the attacks and nasty olive oil/epsom salt cleanses, it's far better than losing your gall bladder to surgery! I will write someday when I'm cured. Good luck all! Elaine Tweet
