Hi, I was just wondering if you know anything about gallstones??  Why I am asking, is before I did a gallbladder cleanse, and I passed 69 stones.  Some as big as almonds and down to the size of split peas.  The Dr. at emerg. said there is NO WAY to pass anything bigger that a split pea...... so, he does not know what I did pass.  Even though I told him they were emerald green like the pic's on the internet look like.  He said the opening isn't anywhere near big enough to pass something that big.  Do you have any idea as to what that could have been.  ???   He said the gravel was normal, and the little tiny ones ( if they were like pearl hard) , were stones....... but, they weren't pearl hard, they were sort of hard, but the middle was a clear jelly like substance.  
Just wondering if you might know something about that??

thanks in advance....
Hope you are doing well,   I still recovering from my week, it was the worst week yet.... I didn't sign up for this....LOL

take care,
Candy

Nope, haven't a clue.  I agree that the opening from the gall bladder to the intestine should be too small to let large stones pass.  I wonder if the "cleanse" did something to harden the intestines' contents to make things look like stones.  The clear jelly is likely intestinal mucous.
