If i run 6 days a week and eat a low-fat diet how long would it take me to drop a stone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Drop a gallstone?: Sounds like a myth. Gallstones can take years to soften with medications. Passing one typically makes one suffer far more, and can create more complications. They won't go away.
