Pain In Right Lower Quadrant. History Of Completing 6 Day Gallbladder, Liver Flush Followed By Passing Multiple Gallstones. Ideas?

I just completed a 6-day gallbladder/liver flush with lots of apple juice, then finally epsom salt and water, and at bedtime olive oil and grapefruit juice drink. I passed several gallstones. But now I have pain in my right lower quadrant. What do you think it is?

I am pretty much a healthful eater, lots of veggies, whole grains, simple foods, and drink lots of water. But have had constipation issues all my life. A natural doctor tested and found that I am allergic to many foods which could be causing my chronic life-long constipation.

Now with this cleanse I am experiencing right lower quadrant pain. Could it be appendicitis? Diverticulitis? Hernia? Ovary????? I can still function, walk, work, etc., but the pain is very noticeable. I do not have health insurance, so I am very conservative about medical care, and prefer natural if at all possible. Of course, if necessary I will use a medical doctor.

PS I did the same gallbladder/liver flush about a month ago and passed a whole lot of stones, more than this time. The information said that if you do that you should do another cleanse until you do not pass any more stones. Also, I did not have the right lower quadrant pain with the first flush.

Thank you in advance for any positive direction you might be able to provide.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Nice to hear that so many gall stones passed with a natural treatment .
The pain in right quadrant may be due to ,
1 Urinary tract system calculus , diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound of urinary tract system, if consult an Urologist and get his opinion , otherwise you can try natural treatment .
2 Right intestinal colic , the most probable reason as gallbladder stone passed just recently so might be due to rapid intestine movement, so for this you have to wait for some time.
3 appendicitis , if fever present with vomiting , pain at fix point then think about this . Diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination by a surgeon .
So deal according to above mentioned condition .
Good luck.
