Phantom Gall Bladder Pain Posted: 05-08-07 12:31pm
I had my gall bladder remover 5 years ago
and I still wake up every night will
phantom gallbladder pain. It goes away for
a couple hours when after I drink
something. I've see 2 specialist, had
numbers of tests, and my doctor is
currently trying me on different
medications to see if anything helps, but
we haven't found anything yet. Has anyone
had anything similar??? I'd love to get a
full nights sleep again.

Me too... Posted: 07-16-08 12:55pm
I am going through the same thing, my gall
bladder was removed in March '08 and I am
still having the same pain, I've had Ct
scan, I'm scheduled for UGI, endoscopy,
colonoscopy and I've had blood test for H
pylori. My Ct scan showed everything was
good and gall bladder is gone, the H
plyori came back negative. So now I wait
for the other tests. I am frustrated to
say the least and like you would like to
get a good night's sleep again.

hello Posted: 07-16-08 13:05pm
I have been having pain on my right side
above my ribs for about a yr but in the
past 2 weeks it has gotten worse the drs
told me i may have gallbladder disease..
they have given me a cat scan, ultrasound,
and did blood work but they havent found
anything. I usually get pain acouple of
hrs after i eat and have the pain for
about 3 or 4 hrs. I was wondering are
these the symptoms for gall bladder
disease?? I also usually get the pain
during the night and wake up with it.
Thank you

I had similar symptoms but they did decide
it was definitely my gall bladder till i
had a hida scan, from all I've heard since
I had mine removed try whatever you can to
not remove it
Let me know how you do...
