2nd Flush

I'm in the late stages of wrapping up my 2nd flush (2 weeks after the first). Followed the 2 doses of Epsom Salts 6PM and 8PM with the olive oil and fresh squeezed lemon juice and the Black-Walnut tincture at 10PM. Also took 4 ornithine capsules. Had to get up 4 times in the night to eliminate (mostly stool) but was always able to get back to sleep. Each time before I went back to sleep I tried to drink as much water as I had just eliminated - to keep from getting dehydrated.

At 6AM the stones stared coming. It is now 8:30AM and I just took my last dose of ES. In the last 2 1/2 hours I've been to the lou 4 times and each time have flushed out approx 10-20 (1/4" diameter plus) small green stones and hundreds of tan colored grains (some call it chaff and some call in sludge) all of which were floating on top. It sometimes looks like I dumped a serving of ivory colored grits into the CAN, that covered nearly half of the water's surface.

During my first flush I caught everything in a collander to prove to myself that this process works. And it Did! During that flush I got over 200 stones, roughly 10-15 of which were 1/2" in diameter and 3/4" long. I chose not to do that this time. For me, in these first 2 flushes, the elimination throughout the night seems to be all stool (no floating objects), and then early in the morning the floting debris starts to appear.

It looks like....by the time the morning is over....I will have flushed out another 100-200 stones and a ton of chaff. Whoopee!

For those of you who may wonder about my condition and the benefits I've felt from the first flush...I'm 58 and have had digestive problems for over 20 years. The last 4 years have been the worst....with brain fog, low grade frontal headaches, ear pressure, fatigue, malaise. I also had bursitis in my left shoulder and right elbow (inflammation and fluid). I have been struggling to find a cure. I knew that changing my diet was important and that fiber, digestive enzymes, omega 3's and some B vitamin supplements were important.....but my digestive system (and hiatal hernia) were so compromised that I couldn't take those things without severe reflux problems. I was able to alter my diet, but couldn't take any of the supplements. The only way I could avoid reflux was to take the usual Protonix or Prevacid....which I did not want to do. 3 years ago I was diagnosed with a number of airborne and food sensitivities (not allergies) that my allergist theorized were causing all of these symptoms. He put my on allergy shots (I agreed because I could not find any other solution) and they have helped reduce the effects of the symptoms. But I still could not take the supplements without reflux.

I share this will you, because....within 2 days after the 1st flush I was able to take all of those supplements without reflux or discomfort. I still have some of the symptoms I described earlier...but they were less severe. I continue to use a friendly liver/ gallbladder diet - filtered water, very little coffee or alcohol, no fried foods, no trans fats, little dairy, plenty of fiber, etc. I'll post again later this week to let you know how my symptoms are doing. I'm not expecting miracles....but believe that if I keep flushing over the next 3-6 months...within a years time I'm confident I will get rid of all these symptoms and most if not all of my allergies!

Question for "seasoned" flushers. Are the small dark green stones typically from the liver or can they be from the gall bladder as well?
