Re: gallbladder & ibs +edit
I always got the same pains as you, never the pain was in the gallbladder area. According to the ultrasound I have a gallstone which is almost 1". I was first diagnosed in 2003
and I still have my gallbladder and the stone.
I did a lot of cleanses like liverflush and colon cleansing.
When I feel a pain coming, may be 2-4x a year I drink a cup of warm water in which is dissolved 1 tbs of epsom
salts (+magnesium sulfate) and the pain goes away within
20 minutes.
Right now I also put a pinch of ES in my coffee every day
and so far my gallbladder has not acted up for 6 months.
I assume by now you might have the results from your US and
might now what is going on.
Edit: Make sure that you ask for a copy of your ultrasound.
If they say you have stones you want to read it yourself so
you can see what the size is and usually they will give a description of more than the gallbladder.
