HELLO! I AM SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR PAIN. I TOO HAVE HAD THE SAME GB PAIN AND HAVE ALSO HAD TO STARVE TO AVOID PAIN. MY CHIROPRACTOR TOLD ME TO ONLY CLEANSE EVERY 2 WEEKS BECAUSE 1.) ITS VERY HARSH ON YOUR BODY AND 2.) YOU HAVE TO GIVE THE STONES TIME TO MOVE FORWARD FROM YOUR LIVER. CHECK OUT THE CLEANSE ON THIS WEB SITE, THE OLIVE OIL, GRAPEFRUIT JUICE, Epsom Salt RECIPE. THAT HAS WORKED THE BEST FOR ME. ALSO, THE DAY OF THE CLEANSE, EAT NO FAT THAT WAY YOUR BILE WILL BUILD UP AND DURING THE CLEANSE IT WILL PUSH THE STONES OUT MORE FORCEFULLY, GIVING YOU BETTER RESULTS. YOU MAY HAVE TO CLEANSE EVERY 2 WEEKS UNTIL YOU GET NO MORE STONES. YOU ARE DEFINITELY DOING THE RIGHT THING BY CLEANSING INSTEAD OF SURGERY. I HAD MY GB REMOVED SEVEN YEARS AGO AND HAVE STONES AGAIN, NOT TO MENTION I WENT 2 YEARS AFTER MY SURGERY WITH CHRONIC AND SEVERE DIARRHEA. GOOD LUCK.
