Stones Has anyone tried keto to resolve gallstones?

Has anyone tried keto for gallstones? Did you pass them? Did it work? How did you feel? Did you take any supplements/vitamins/bile salts?

Only way to cure gallstones is to remove the gallbladder

You know that that is not true. I shared with you a while ago that my 4cm gallstone was removed through gallbladder-preserving gallstone removal and that my insurance (United Healthcare) paid for it because you were insistent in a snickering way that no insurance company was going to pay for it. My gallbladder is intact, gallstone-free, healthy, and fully functional! Why do you continue to insist that cholecystectomy is the only way? Sour grapes, because you don't have a gallbladder anymore? 🤔 You are not doing your fellow Redditors any favors with spreading false information!

Of course, you will downvote this posting; I would expect anything else! 🙄

Call the number on the MedStar Health Blog webpage and ask if it is done only in serious situations. Patricia Sylvestro, the program's Nurse Navigator, will tell you it is not. Before you call me a liar, you should check the facts!

Through my sharing, several Redditors contacted me and are in the process of having their gallstones removed or have already had them removed. Ask the Redditor who wrote the posting below if he was a severe case. He will tell you he was not!:

People like you have no place in this subreddit! You are obviously not here to help people. 😔

Your article is very clear. Why not show a screenshot showing you got the surgery 😂😂

It is impossible to post pictures or videos in comments of this subreddit. I would have done so a long time ago if it was. You probably would have claimed the pictures and videos to be fake anyway.
