Oh my aching gallbladder!!!  

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Well, the side pain I was having wasn't a pulled muscle after all. The doctor suggested it could be gall-stones, and after talking to my sister, who had her gallbladder out because of stones, I know that is what this pain is. It keeps coming and going and it is so horrible, I couldn't even stand up the other night!!! So, I am doing a stone cleanse, hopefully that will take care of it. I have done them twice before because gallbladder issues run in my family, and I have gotten a good number of stones each time, especially the first time. It is safe to do while breastfeeding, so I may feel pretty crappy tomorrow (no pun intended ) but it shouldn't affect Ian or my supply. We'll see, wish me luck!!

Oh my God Alice...that's aweful. Your poor little body is still recovering from surgery . It's a good thing you're doing a cleanse, and it's O.K. for baby too. You are so smart and informed! I really honor you. I hope you feel better soon.

Love and Light. Angela

Well, I did the cleanse, I passed some stones, and hopefully that is it!! I did end up in the emergency room on Saturday because it seems one of them got stuck or something. However, by the time they did an ultrasound (I had to go back on Sunday for that) they couldn't see a thing, and the pain is gone. I sure hope that's it, I can't imagine surgery right now with Ian being such a little tiny baby.

Glad to hear things cleared up and you didn't need surgery!
