You will take enzymes or bile, everyday, to counter what you lost from a gall bladder going missing. If you get too much bile from supplements, you will have temporary, but real, issues. You will need to balance it and your food to something predictable to treat. These are what I’ve come across as concerns in the past, researching for someone.

Dissolve your gall stones, if you can afford the time. Some have done it with Jarrow Bile Acid Factors, but understanding what type of stones you have, would refine your options.

It sounds like you are producing less gastric acid, which the vinegar helped.

Have you been tested for H. Pylori? That can exhaust stomach acid cells early.

This business has me going back and forth as to the efficacy of gall bladder removal.

For example

I had two cholesteral gallstones and a third that passed through while I was in the hospital. The literature says that one or two gall stones may not merit a gall bladder removal.

(The doctors did say that my gall was completely black)

I discovered something huge. That is that cholesteral lowering drugs can cause gall stones. So I went off of them. I was taking colchesine, crestor and ezitimbe to reduce my stroke risk. But cholesteral lowering drugs also contribute to gallstones.

I think that the better strategy now is just to cut the last 10 pounds of fat around my guts. I’m on the way to doing that.

My stomach seems to have change. Coffee now disagrees with me. I’ve never had that before.
