Hi, I am a 29 year old female. I had my gallbladder removed 3 years ago. Since that I have had 5 ercps performed to remove stones that are forming in the common bile duct. I keep going back and forth to my doctors but they cannot give me any answers to why this is happening. They have come to the conclusion that the stones weren't left behind but are still forming. Every 6 months or so I get really sick and have to have large stones removed from the common bile duct by an ercp because it gets completely blocked where I get really really sick and usually end up with juandice. When there is no stones in the bile duct I have a constant burning and aching under my right rib. I know some people replyed to me on another site saying it may to do with my weight but I am not a person that is overwieght, I am at average weight between 125-130lbs. Just wondering if anyone has any problem similar to this and what they may have been diagonsed with. Any thing at all would be of help since I am at my wits end with this.
Just hoping to feel well for awhile.
