A member asked:
I have "liver sludge" why does laying flat, tossing and turning, and stomach laying trigger it? why does it wake me from deep sleep? how is it treated

Not specific: Perhaps your medical advisor is referring to problems with your gallbladder which is where the bile goes to when it leaves the liver. Ask your doctor to do a liver and gallbladder scan or perhaps take a look with a scope. We really need more information to help, a low fat diet should help.
