Ok, since there seems to be an abundance of knowledge
within this group, perhaps someone can verify my
theory as to my chronic fatigue and digestion
problems.

I'm 21, but my freshman year at college I was
stressed out. drinking a lot too, and running cross
country. I didn't want to be running. saturday was
race day, and hence the binge keg stands on friday
night. rebellious.
I came back to school my sophomore year with a
change of heart towards running, but I kept getting a
recurring side cramp right in the location of the
gallbladder whenever I raced and was breathing hard.
I was also a vegetarian.
My junior year I returned with a super strong
desire to be the best I could be at running. but the
strange side cramping (different from cramping I'd
experience in the past - this was ALWAYS under my
right rib and deep inside) persisted, and then I began
to experience serious lapses of fatigue. by the end
of the semester, I was having serious digestion
problems, with bloating, vomitting especially after
fatty meals, achy muscles and fatigue. I took the
following semester off, and now this semester as well
to figure it out. My patience with doctors has pretty
much run out.
doctors couldn't find anything wrong with me,
ultrasound for gallstones was negative, but I had read
about the gallstones flush and gave it a try. sure
enough, lots of gallstones, probably 30 - 40 a
centimeter or more in size, dark green came out and a
lot more smaller ones. could my gallbladder have been
so packed with these that heavy breathing could have
aggrevated it and caused the side "cramping"? could
the stress and drinking my freshman year triggered
gallstone formation? could the gallstones be
responsible for the bloating, vommiting and fatigue?
After my first flush I felt much better for 2 days,
but then went back to the same old feeling. Do I have
a ton of these stones in me that I need to flush out
and then will be back to normal?
basically, do you guys think I'm on the right track
with this? take care,

Troy
