Ive got a ultrasound scan next week which
ive been painfully wiating 4 weeks for, I
seem to have many of the (pre-diagnosed)
gallston / gallbladder problems people
talk about here. What concerns me is for
the past 6 months ive been ill daily and
my doctor still insists its
indigestion(excess stomach acid)!!!!! I
do find this hard to believe but I suppsoe
I have to trust him, I waited 3 months for
an endoscopy which was ok and a biopsy was
taken and thats ok, blood tests showed
clear too.
The doc tells me the ultrasound test will
be clear too but I have to say I hope it
shows gallstones then at least I know why
im feeling this way for so long.
What I need is some advice as to what to
try next if the ultrasound is clear
because I will change doctor if I need to
aas he said if its clear he will put me
back on omeprazole for the stomach acid
like I was on before which did me no good
at all, so please any advice will be good
on tests, diests, similar problems...
.Thanks

Well I know I was told that it doenst have
to be stones to cause problems. There
can be something called sludge in your gb
which can cause symptoms. Also you can
have a gb that isnt working properly. If
the ultrasound comes back normal, then
maybe get a second opinion as the
medication you were on before, was doing
you no good. As for diet, avoid as much
fat as possible, because that will set an
attack off.
