I think it’s important for me to reiterate that I did not have stones, only sludge. It took two years of effort, but I am now free from gallbladder pain and have two clear ultrasounds to prove it. The troubles started around 2012/2013. I’ve been free of pain for almost three years now.   [End]

Hi sorry for the late response. I did not have stones only sludge but I was in constant pain for a couple of years. It took some time, a couple of years, to resolve the condition but I am still well today and still have my gallbladder.   [End]

Hi sorry to be so late in responding. It took a year to clear the sludge, but after the sludge was clear my gallbladder was still irritated. I went on a liquid elemental diet for awhile and that calmed things down. After I was better I made the mistake of thinking I could eat anything again-WRONG! So now I am going through the healing process all over again. One thing I think is that gluten is a major irritant for people with gallbladder problems. I find that things go better if I avoid gluten and dairy. Good luck to you!   [End]

Hello. I just wanted you to know that this post helped me. I tried many of things you suggested, along with some other things too. I had one ultrasound that showed sludge. A later scan showed nothing. So I would consider that objective proof that I cleared the sludge. It was a long road (two years) with plenty of pain, but I am fine now. So thanks for posting these suggestions. Gigi   [End]

Hello. I also have adrenal fatigue and used to have gallbladder sludge (see my post from 3/16 entitled ’gallbladder sludge’). I used the herbs from Sensible Health and thought they did help. And I don’t think there is any concern about these herbs being a problem with adrenal fatigue. But I do think that liver flushes are a problem with adrenal fatigue-it’s just too hard on one’s system. Take a look at my post and you will find some ideas about how to address this problem. Good luck to you! Gigi   [End]

I’m posting my story so that others may potentially benefit. Sorry this is so long. About three years ago, I started noticing an intermittent twinge-like pain under my right ribcage. Eventually I realized the problem was my gallbladder and I had an ultrasound which showed sludge. I was advised to have surgery but opted not to because I wanted to keep my gallbladder. I read everything I could find. I tried many different things, so I am not sure what things helped most though I have some ideas. After about a year of trying various alternative approaches, I was still in pain, so I had an ...

Hi. Thanks for your message. Now I am even more scared. Should I just give up and have the surgery? I don’t trust doctors and don’t want to go that route. So far I have done three flushes but I can’t do the Epsom salts. They throw off my electrolytes too much and cause adrenal attacks. I’ve been taking various supplements (NAC, taurine, lecithin, rowachol, artichokes, beet leaves) that seem have almost eliminated my pain. But my digestion is still terrible: lots of gas and floating yellow stools. I just don’t know what else to do. Any advice would be appreciated. Have you ever heard of any ...

That sounds pretty discouraging. I wonder if I should just break down and have the surgery? I’ve been doing the flushes every three weeks. So far I’ve done three, but not using Epsom salts. The one time I tried Epsom salts it aggravated my adrenal fatigue. I have also been trying beet leaf, artichokes, lecithin, NAC, and Taurine. Since taking these supplements I have experienced a reduction in pain to almost zero (maybe a twinge rarely). But I still don’t think my digestion is correct at all. I have terrible gas and loose yellow floating stools. I am very discouraged and don’t know what to ...

Hello Everyone, I am a 47 yr old female. I have had pain in my upper right quadrant for months and finally had an ultrasound and was told I had sludge in my gallbladder and needed surgery. I am terrified of the surgery and don’t want to have it. But I am also tired of being in constant pain. I’ve already done a round of herbal tinctures including Gold Coin Grass (from Sensible Health). And I have done two flushes using the protocol on that site which doesn’t use Epsom salt. I tried just a little Epsom salt before flushing and I cannot tolerate it. I have adrenal fatigue and it sends me ...

Hello Everyone, I am very scared and need some advice. Back in February I started doing some iodine supplementation. I am not under the care of any medical professional. I did the skin patch test and according to that I was very deficient. I knew I was likely deficient because I had been using non-iodized (refined) sea salt for many years, not realizing that I was missing out on this critical element. I took a very moderate dose (about 3 drops of Lugols per day) until just recently. I noticed a few weeks ago that my hair was thinning and now I am waking up in the middle of the night feelin ...
