I did read this book actually and also others but unfortunately my stone was too big to flush and was obstructing bile flow. It would never have passed on it's own before my gallbladder ruptured or went infected. If it broke into smaller pieces or reduced in size and able to pass by some miracle it could have gotten stuck and caused an emergency situation. It was extremely enlarged and the pressure was getting worse every day.
So far I am healing from surgery well and able to eat without many issues. My stool has also gone from yellow and clay colored to brown. I don't feel like I have a heavy sandbag in my side anymore and feel that the surgery saved my life to be quite honest. But I think it's great if others are able to avoid surgery. I had no other options.
