[H] Gallstones

[Dr.Binoy.S.Vallabhassery]

Dear Madam,

Gall stones occur about 1 in 10 people over age 40, with twice as many
women as men being infected. The stones occur in gallbladder, and, in
most cases, do not cause symptoms. Gallstones are formed from bile, a
liquid that aids digestion and is produced by liver and then stored in
gallbladder. Bile is maid up mainly of the fatty substance cholesterol,
pigments, and various salts. A change in composition of bile may
trigger stone formation. About 1 in 5 cases, stones consist of
cholesterol only, and in about 1 in 20 cases, stones consist of pigment
only. Often, there are many stones, and some can reach up to the size of
golf ball.

There is often no obvious cause for gall stones. However , cholesterol
stones are more likely in people who are very over weight. the risk of
cholesterol gallstones may also be increased by a high-fat diet. Pigment
stones may form if there is excessive destruction of red blood cells, as
may occur in disorders hemolytic anemia and sickle cell anemia. poor
emptying of the gallbladder caused by narrowed bile ducts may also
increases the risk of gallstones

Gallstones often cause no symptoms, may occur if one or more stones
block the cystic duct ( the exit tube from the gallbladder ) or the
common bile duct (the main bile duct from the liver to duodenum ). A
stone that partially or completely blocks the flow of of bile will cause
attacks known as biliary colic, which cause symptoms that may include
mild to sever upper abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting.

Stones that remain lodged in the bile ducts block the release of bile.
this can cause sever inflammation or infection of gallbladder and bile
ducts. Blocked bile ducts may cause jaundice and may inflammation of
pancreas also.

Gallstones that do not cause symptoms need no treatment. If you have
mild or infrequent symptoms , adopting a diet that is low in fat may
prevent further discomfort . However, if your symptoms are persistent or
become worse, you may have your gallbladder removed by surgery. The
absence of gallbladder does not usually cause any health problems, and
the bile simply drains continually through a duct directly into the
intestines. However in very rare cases , the stones re-form in bile duct
also.

Homoeopathic drugs are available that dissolve gallstones, but it may
take months or years for the stones to dissolve completely.
Alternatively, you may be treated with ultrasonic shock waves (
Lithotripsy ) which shatter the stones into tiny pieces so that they
pass painlessly into the small intestine and are excreted in the feces.
Use of Homoeopathic drugs or ultrasonic shock waves avoids the need for
surgery. Homoeopathic drugs that may also prevent further formation of
stones.

Awhile back someone posted to the list a "formula" for aiding in the passing
of gall stones. I can't seem to find it anywhere. Does anyone have this
info saved and could possibly pass it on to me?
Thanks
