On the Morning of December 22 , 2011 I had my first EXCRUCIATING gallbladder atack . I am 62 yrs old and took the pian for more than ten hours whilst just lying on the marble floor face doown - the best way to minimize the Pain . Being concerned about the spread of the infection which started in my front abdomen and spread to the right to my gallbladder I went that evening to a local hospital in terrible pain . I was examined and underwent a blood and urine test . My blood pressure was 150/100 I was given pain killers and antibiotics for a week and recommended to return for an ultrasound . They could not tell me the exact problem but hinted that it may be kidney stone . I told them that every time I lie down the attack starts . Since then I could not sleep - only cat-napping in a SITTING position . I had no bowel movement for a week and lost my appetite. I had several attacks of fever and tried to sweat it out . I discovered that HOT showers did help relieve the pain temporarily . I purchased further antibiotics in the assumption that they were having some effect . Being absolutely lost for a reason / cause as to the continuous excruciating pain in the right side of my lowerback I did research on the internet yesterday and found that the suspect organ was my Gallbladder . I found your website and purchased the AJC AND AJV . Since 2200 krs PM LT last night I drank drank 3 glasses up to 0700 hrs/am this morning. The third glass produced the positive results shared by other sufferers . I have since been able to sleep and have had only one Minor attack in the last 8 hours.

I had dandelion greens coming up all over my yard, and started picking/cooking them. I had let them grow, so they were tall stalks when grown. I would eat them every day, at least a small plate full. I cooked and ate beets and beet greens from the store and took herbs (nettle) in capsules. I felt better in two days, but kept it up for two weeks. That was a year ago. I am having some twinges now, and started back on the herbs and beets with saurkraut (I don't like drinking vinegar). The relief is instant, and water helps.

Artichoke extract can help, five days on followed by two days off. if nuasea or an attack develops, lay off fats and oils for a few days, take plenty of water and 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of Choline bitarterate each day in body temp water will help, especially with nausea. A Cacommile or choline bitarterate retention enema follow by swedish bitters will help. some people do 3 enemas within 36 hours, but dont forget to drink plenty of water, fibre, moderate amounts of healthy food and probiotics. got to normalize bowel function as priority. if constipation is present or you alternate between that and loose fatty pale stools the liver is struggling and will do so as long as bowel function is poor. some people find a castor oil pack with hot water bottle on it, - over the gallbladder/liver area for 30 mins gives relief AFTER an enema has been given. do keep well hydrated, especially if using enemas.

Ted. Been all over. But I did want to share about my gallbladder issues. There is a good herbal formula I resort to whether it is stomach or gallbladder. It is Health Concerns GB6. One pill will take away my pain in an hour. It is an herbal formula that my natural Dr. Gave me. And you must wait and not take right after a meal. At least an hour after a meal. But I will try some of the other ideas as well. I used to have Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue and am well and the biggest thing was food allergies. They trigger so much. I cannot eat egg (and I believe that happened because of the flu shots) I had to take two of them years ago to take care of my ailing dad. Albumen in the shots and my body rejected it and now after eating eggs my whole life I cannot have any. Eating something with egg would give me both migraine and gallbladder pain. But that aside the other big thing is sugar. NO ONE wants to hear that but you have to stop eating it. It is sooo destructive. Think of it this way: The strongest bone in your body is your teeth and what eats teeth???SUGAR! So what is it doing to the rest of your body? I don't eat it anymore. I do use a little honey and agave syrup because I hate Stevia. I am thinking seriously about the fat issue and also something else I figure out. I can go along fine until I start to exercise and then I get sick. I think when I start to burn fat my body flips out as much as if I ate a fatty meal. And the water isuse is BIG. Water is so big. No one drinks enough water. I drink nothing but water and until my pee is very light lemon colored. Check out the water cure and learn alot!! www.watercure.com I am also thinking more about trying to eat a little more fat like some of the posts mentioned. Having the herbs and all is great BUT we need the CAUSE so we can be cured otherwise we are not much better than the Dr.s with their meds and surgeries.

That helped immensely with immediate relief. The interesting thing to note for me was that I had an Ayurvedic doctor tell me to take, upon first rising, 2 tsp ACV 1 tsp lemon juice mixed in a glass of water. I had done this religiously for almost 11 months and have had awesome results with no attacks. The funny thing (or uber painful thing) is that I just woke to a major attack and am feeling that my 2 days of missed morning ritual has had an effect on my system! I see how the effects of NOT taking my morning "alkalizer" I call it, can wreak havoc on me. Here it is Christmas morning at 3:14am and just having my symptoms slowly subside. Hmm, maybe I'll run into Santa! I truly believe that this morning "alkalizer" balances my system. The side effects have been that I lost weight on it too! I follow the ACV lemon juice (all organic) with a glass of "sole" (pronounced So-lay). The water/salt solution of Himalayan sea salts and water from a jar. 1 tsp of Sole with water before or after the ACV mixture. For 1 thing it prevents me from having coffee first thing in the morning and know that it helps to bring my PH balance into alignment. If you don't know, the most important thing is to have the body in an alkaline state... For most diseases do not live in an alkaline body, only in an acid body. Research this yourself. This was shared with me by my holistic practitioner. All good information to share for better health! Our bodies know what is wanted. BTW I know that my niece of 6 years craves the vinegary taste and likes just 1tsp ACV with water now and again. (At times she craves pickle juice). Well, my symptoms have subsided and know that I will not overindulge even though it is Christmas. Off to bed before I run into Santa and surprise him!

Now the pain is only below my ribs around the liver/gall bladder area. My main concern is that after eating, or drinking even water, i feel fluid which i think is bile moving into my small intestines, but all somewhere else in my body. Is that possible.
