gallstone pain after gallbladder removal

Is a 60% ejection fraction from a hida scan bad? The ultrasound and scope did not show anything was wrong with the gallbladder and there are no gallstones. There is occasional pain that occurs every few months and lasts a couple weeks from the right side radiating to the back. Is there a need to consider having gallbladder surgery?

Ok, thank you! My friend is in this situation and her G.I doctor has referred her to a G.I surgeon to have it removed. 60% sounded good to me considering my ejection fraction was 14% when I had mine removed.

Of course a "thoroughly normal EF" is no guarantee that the gallbladder is 100% healthy but it would be unusual to have it removed without some other reasons.
