Finally Got Hida Scan Results... Gallbladder

Finally the dr called this afternoon, w/ the hida scan results. His gallbladder isn't working. They didn't give specifics, they said the surgeon will go over all of that w/ us. They referred us to the surgeon. We have an appt on monday at 2 pm. The surgeon is really good & I just him. All the years I suffered from crohn's, anytime I was in the hospital, he would come by & check on me & read my charts. He's never operated on me, but he did my mom's gallbladder surgery, & my aunt & dad has had surgery & he did those. So he will get his gallbladder removed really soon I hope. He's in alot of pain today, but he has to stay at work, so he's miserable. He's really worried about having surgery, but we're glad we know what's wrong. I'm pretty nervous & worried too, I know he'll be okay, but it is surgery. Now the fight to have it done is probably the next step as we don't have insurance (baby roger's the only one). We can't pay for the whole surgery, so we're hoping they'll let us pay some down & pay the rest out. Another option is to go through the er if they won't work w/us. (my cousin who works at the hospital told me, but she thinks we won't have a problem since this will probably be emergency surgery. Can anyone who has had this surgery please let us know how it was? Were you in alot of pain after? We're hoping for outpatient surgery, since he does not like hospitals at all. Thanks everyone!!
