I have a stone stuck in the bile duct as well as stones in my gall bladder. I have tried lots of alternative remedies, chanca piedra tea, apple juice, flaxseed iol etc, but after 5 weeks, my surgeon wants to do an ERCP, endoscopic removal of the stone, which includes injecting dye into the bile duct, biopsies and cutting the end of the bile duct. The chances of pancreatitis from this are as high as 10%, as well as other complications. I really don't want it, any experiences or advice from anyone?
My dad still cooks better than me and he's 71
Relatively new here so an introduction.
