Im 19 Years Old. I Need Some Help With This... Please? Posted: 06-05-06 23:50pm
I am a 19 year old female. I had my gall
bladder out 9 months ago. Im on
antidepressant lexapro. Been on it for a
year in a half.
Ive been having diarrhea for the past
weeks. Ive been feelin weak, and tired,
and shakey all over. I sleep way too
much, tired all the time. Cranky.
Ive been noticing little bright red
droplets of blood on my toilet paper after
a bowel movement. I wouldnt be so
alarmed about it from just seeing the
blood, but the reason I am alarmed cause
ive been feeling so tired and weak, and
ive been having severe nausea. Lastnight
got so badly I was vomiting over and over
from it. My heart pounds, races. I am
cranky all the time, moody. I don't know
whats wrong with me. Does anyone know?
Ive been having dark stools, narrow.
Waterty stools almost daily.
Please tell me what you think?
Love,
metallee

Hey sweetie, you really should make an
appointment with your gastro Dr. They can
"go from both ends" as they did here to
find the problem. You are so young to be
having so many medical problems and my
heart goes out to you. Please have
yourself checked out. This could get way
out of hand...Kinda like having a
toothache, waiting until it rots out of
your mouth, living with the pain....
Instead of going ahead of and having it
looked at and fixed before you are really
in pain. Keep in touch! 8)

You May Have a Low Immune System Posted: 10-04-06 15:50pm
I did some reading about the gall bladder
and found that its purpose is to remove
dead blood cells and other bad things. I
think the blood you are seeing is going to
happen since you dont have a gal bladder
any more. About your low energy, it could
be a result of your body not being able to
extract enough of the nutrients. I have
an idea your immune system is not as good
as it was either. I do have a suggestion
for you. You should probably take some immunity boosters
and digestive aids. From the reading
I have done, I found that a lack of a gall
bladder results in a; not totally
efficient digestive system, damage to
immune system since dead cells not being
totally removed, not as much nutrient
intake. I myself do take thai-go
mangosteen juice to help with my
overall body immune system, helps with
digestion, and give me some more energy
somehow. The plus side is the supplier
only offers 100% natural product, and
finds the ingredients that the body is
able to digest.

it also sounds like a fecal impaction due
to your nausea, vomiting, and narrow
stools....however im not too sure
considering that you had your gall bladder
removed.
