Christiane, The gallbladder functions to store and concentrate the bile manufactured in the liver, for eventual delivery to the small intestine via the cystic duct. In doing this the gallbladder absorbs water and ions from the bile into the gallbladder mucosa.
Bile consists of mainly water and bile acids, bile salts, cholesterol, a phospholipid called lecithin, bile pigments and several ions. Bile salts are sodium and potassium salts of bile acids. The bile has a pH of 7.6 - 8.6. Most of the bile salts are reabsorbed in the end part of the small intestine (Ileum) and enter the portal blood flowing toward the liver. I can see no reason not to treat the gallbladder directly with CS. As the gallbladder drains directly into the small intestine, much of the CS will be lost in the faeces. You could not introduce enough silver (grams) by this method to cause argyria. As much of the CS is probably complexed by the bile acids etc. I should think that small but frequent applications would be a reasonable approach. I am not sure of the physical method that flushing describes...does that mean filling the gallbladder and then draining it? If so, how many times could you do this a day? In any event, it would be wise to continue the CS flush for a week or so after the bile becomes clear, as it seems the seat of the infection had not been cleared thus far. It is my opinion that argyria is not a consideration in this matter, and that your guide should be, your judgment as to the elimination of the infection. Some wiser heads than mine might venture an opinion as to whether adding a small amount of DMSO to the CS might make the treatment more effective. You might also consider magnetic pulsing as an adjunct.
