I had to laugh at your remark about drs. being wrong
"sometimes". It seems to me allopaths are wrong more
times than not. That's cause they seem to know next
to nothing about nutrition and taking care of the
whole person as opposed to just the pain induced
symptoms.

I too had an ultrasound, braium x rays(which left me
unable to walk and work do to severe pain). Four
gastroentenologists later (yes I fired them all), I
was still being told that my "mildly contracted"
gallbladder was "normal".

After several months of continuous gb pain, I was
urged to do a liver flush by some knowedable folks on
this list. Three flushes, and some 500+ stones (some
big as my thumb nail) I realize how wrong my drs. have
been.

By listening to my body, eating better and simple
solutions that have been around for so many years, I
am better able to care for myslef in my own hands,
than with a whole team of western md's.
