Q: Appendix Vs Gallbladder
asked by: looking4help2009 on July 16th, 2009

Anyone here have both problems with Appendix and gallbladder , about 7 years ago my doctor mentioned something about the removal of my Appendix to this day I haven't done much about this( my bad scared ) fast forward to present day , for the last few months have been having sharp pains in my Abdominal area not one area all over , right shoulder pain , real gassy feeling , upset ( not nausea) stomach , even was having heart attack feeling in my chest ( which was tested for no heart problems Razz ) have had CT scans , sonograms both revealed gall stones and slight problems with Appendix and a fatty liver.I have a consult with a surgeon next week ( not sure if this means I will get a surgeory or not)

Couple of questions has anyone experienced this and were there symptoms about the same , will surgeons remove both Appendix and Gallbladder at the same time if needed and does anyone have any advice?

Thank you

I had a problem with both the gall blader and appendix at the same time. Symptoms for me were the same. They were both removed separately.
