Gallbladder Flush Pre-Surgery.. Anyone Try This?

So, I have been a little freaked out about gallstones after surgery because I have had some symptoms. My vsg date us Sept 28 and in my pre-op testing I might get an ultrasound on my gallbladder to see if it is bad. So i went to youtube and googled gallstones and OMG!! There is a "natural" flush you can do to get the stones out without the pain. This guy had a video of the stones that came out of him, I am assuming via his poo, but they looked washed off. SORRY!!! Anyways, it was HORRIDLY AMAZING what came out and how much! Liver flukes and all!!!! Just wondering if anyone has tried this prior to surgery to help avoid PAINFUL gallstones after.... And after I post this I am going to gross myself out further by watching more youtube videos. :)

I read that for weight loss paitients its better to have ur gallbladdr removed during the surgery because eventually u will have stones and they might have to operate again. I had mys removed and i can say it hurts so much. If i had the choice i would have had the gb and the vsg done at the same time.

I had my gallbladder removed last Thursday. I had my surgery june 26. I was in so much pain 2 weeks after surgery. I went to the er it was my gallbladder and pancreas. The doctor put me on gallbladder meds. They did not work. Finally after going to the er each week my.surgery doctor finally removed my.gallbladder. I.had 200 gallstones that looked like pebbles removed. I wish I could have had mind removed during my first surgery. I guess its up to your doctor. I was told that most doctors will give you medication, so you want get gallstones.

The pain from my gallbladder was unbearable. Happy its gone.

They don't remove it automatically because most people don't need it removed and won't need it removed. If I remember correctly the surgeon said 10%, and they're not in the business of taking 9 of 10 that won't need to be removed.
