My gallstone was the size of half my thumb and its like a small pebble, hard as a stone in the garden, there is no way in hell you could flush that out ! Surgery the only option.
Always get medical advice.

Empath, yours must be the size of almonds.
The ones that I flushed out were the size of peanuts. Loads of them. Surely there must be ways to get the stones out without removing the entire gallbladder, like laser treatment to disperse the stones.

If there was a way to laser them they didnt offer that. Do they do that in America?

Sorry to hear about your condition, I was also diagnosed with multiple gall stones about a year ago, and as they said surgery was the only cure. As I was discussing about my condition to my friend, she suggested to me Grocares GC and Lipican. I was extremely skeptic about the treatment. However, I tried it for a period of 2 months and found effective results. Over the next 4 months my stones dissolved completely. You could try this too.

Dr Jonathan V wright wrote an interesting article about the importance of preserving your gallbladder.
Removal of the Gallbladder may be an easy choice to tackle the gallbladder attack, but the long term consequences is something to think about. The body suffers deficiencies in vit A,D,E and K; will causes many ill heath symptoms patients are not told or warned.

Hi maxirose, may I ask u to please explain this gall stone flush? where do I go/ or do I do it on myself, they want to remove my gallbladder I have 'hundreds' of stones, all the women in my family have had them removed including my 22 yr old cousin- I try to massage them against my ribcage to break them down (u can hear them clicking when I do that, I would say harder then jellybeans) I have an apt for a sonogram as my gallbladder has been hurting more than usual lately- I cant drink either apple juice or cider vinegar due to acid reflux (which they say is caused by the gallbladder) any advice u have I would appreciate/ will check links u posted, thanks xoxo

I did a gallstone flush with a one day's diet and flush it down with a cup of oilive oil. simple.

I have also since, found many other ways of flushing the gall bladder and to flood it with bile. It is done with a liver detox flush. Bile is produced in the liver, The trick is to get the liver to release the gluthations enzymes. One way is to up take MSM which is an organic sulphur compound. The liver need sulphur to produce gluthations inorder to produce more bile.
Another much simpler life saving method is do a coffee enema. 15 minutes is all it takes...of delivering coffee the other end will save you heaps of discomfort and a complete flush. Coffee enema is the best way to detox your liver and flush out the gallbladder. Nothing is simplier than that.

Has anyone tried using coffee enema to flush the gallbladder??? I have. Painless and easy. Flush out the gall bladder, colon and liver all in one hit. Too easy to be true. Coffee stimulates the liver to produce guthationes to detox and flush out all the toxins. Takes only 30 minutes to do a flush. So simple.
