Re: Could anyone interpret med report for me, please?

Sorry, I'm typing too quickly.

When the gallbladder becomes populated with stones it changes the chemistry of the bile which then tends to clump forming soft sticky stones that don't show up on ultra sound. The gallbladder becomes with stones with stones that show on ultrasound plus the soft stones and this stops the gallbladder from contracting; as you said. This aggravates the gallbladder wall which then thickens.

A programmes of flushing can change the bile chemistry, remove/reverse the soft stones, remove some or all the hard stones that show on ultrasound, exercise the gallbladder so that it contracts more. At the end of the programme there may be some hard stones that move to the bulbous end of the gallbladder away from the bile duct. Because the gallbladder contracts by 80% max they may remain there but not cause and symptoms. As we know many people have Gallstones and are unaware of them. That's wahat I trying to say. Tweet
