What made me wait so long was that I developed my back pain 2 weeks after my first flush. I think what happened was I made something move and it was on its way out 2 weeks after my first flush. The day I woke up with the back pain was after a night where I fell asleep on the couch after spending the better part of 3 days in a van on a long, unexpected, unwelcomed road trip. My back was bowed down into the couch and I think something got stuck and I've had 3 years of back pain ever since. I've been desperately afraid to try another Liver Flush because of the resulting back pain. Only out of sheer desperation to feel well again did I throw all caution to the wind and decide to do this flush. I'm so glad I did it.
