Subject: [gallstones] mini flushes, mini attacks, and the oil cure
Howdy folks, I just returned from a two week emergency trip to
support my family in the last days of a dying relative, attend the
funeral, etc. My gall bladder did not realize I was on vacation. Ha!
I had planned a cleanse the weekend I left, so decided to mini the
flush and here is what happened. I halved the amount of ES and mixed
it with apple juice. (I was on the road) Had the oil, juice mixture
an hour late. Only had one ES dose the next morning. 1/2 at that.
After half as many trips to the bathroom, I passed one stone and a
lot of grapefruit looking pouches. You know that hold the juice. Can
anyone explain why this did not work? I am flushing again this
weekend.
I finally decided to test pizza. Haven't had it or hamburgers in 3
months. After almost 3 weeks of no attacks, I had one. But, it was
very mild. Bad enough to wake me up, but not to take the heavy duty
pain meds. I had a teaspoon of olive oil. Who suggested that? I love
you!!!!!!!!!!!!! In 2 minutes it was over. Less than a week later I
had another mild attack. Had 1 Tablespoon of oil. Over in fifteen
minutes. Did I say I love you? LOL! Why do I only get my attacks in
the middle of the night, many hours after I have had offending
substance? I have never had one in the day.
So, my attacks are getting milder, but I am still having them.
Can someone tell me how many flushes they did before they quit
having attacks, or are any of those people still on here?
