Gall Bladder Or What Is It? Posted: 02-21-07 13:07pm
So i am going crazy....I had severe
vomiting(mostly globs and globs of
bile)/diarrhea last Sunday that lead to 2
days of no eating/drinking...then Tuesday
night I eat and severe pain in my upper
right quadrant starts with extreme nausea
and has not stopped since. It is way worse
after eating say 20-40 minutes after when
I break down into tears. I have been to
the doctors numerous times and here is the
scope so far:
Lab values all normal exept for
electrolytes showed the vomiting/diarrhea
Ultrasound normal no stones/inflammation
X-ray no stones/obstruction
1st HIDA Gall bladder didnt fill
2nd HIDA gall bladder filled waiting on EF
but was told over phone everything seemed
normal.
I have pain that goes around my back side
and under my right shoulder blade.
The doctor is convinced this is not my gb
even though at first she was and was
scheduling surgery and had me NPO many
times. She now thinks I pulled a muscle
from vomiting so much on Sunday night-even
though I didnt get the pain for a couple
days after and its relationship with
eating. I am so frustrated and sick of
being in pain and feeling like i'm going
to throw up. Have lost 5lbs since this has
started this week.
Does any one have any thoughts? Thanks

Kiki00; Sounds like your Galbladder to me.
These are the classic signs of a
Galbladder attack. Get a second opinion
and make sure you have your test results
with you when you go to the other doctor.
Also you might want to go see a general
surgeon. They are the ones that do this
type of surgery. I have helped remove
Galbladders that have caused pain but the
test results were fine. Hope that helps.
