Thanks for the support Southern Belle! So far my stone count is up to 250-300 green pea sized stones plus a lot of really really small ones. I have also expelled a lot of sludge and some sand. I got to thinking about the number of parasites that came out. I think the digestive enzymes that I took may be responsible for this, but I don't know for sure. For 1 month prior to starting the Chinese Bitters I took 3 potent enzyme pills every morning on an empty stomach. There are supposed to be a lot of benefits from this including cleansing the blood of bacteria and viruses. (I just found some info stating they can also kill some parasites.) I actually came down with flu like symptoms for 4 days 1 week after starting the enzymes. They said this might happen due to the cleansing effects. Anyway, I'm grateful to have had so much junk leave my system. I can't wait to do this again. I actually found this site about 9 months ago & had contemplated doing the liver flush, but ran into some bad info on the net that scared me off. I am starting to feel euphoric & very very happy, calm and relaxed. This is awesome considering my past battles with depression.
