Anyone have surgery at 39%

My question is this.... My rate after the hida scan was 39% which the hospital called "normal" my dr just called and said he is sending me to the specialist because he still belivees 100% that it is my gallbladder. SO anyone had there gallbladder out at the rate of 39%?
I wished i could just hurry up with this. I mean the pain everyday is enough to handle and now i have xmas and stuff on top of it.. WAH

Normally 39% is not bad enough to have surgery, but it would be nice to avoid losing your gall bladder forever if you can help it.   If you agree, there is a natural olive oil+lemon juice treatment you can try.  Pour a cup of lemon juice and squeeze in 3-4 lemons, and take 2 tbsp every 20 minutes until it runs out.  Time it so you run out about the time you go to bed.

I'm thinking that, since your gall bladder is contracting fine, it may cooperate with a good, hard gall stone flush treatment.  Other people may not be so lucky, because even if they dissolve it till the cows come home, their gall bladder would never actually EXPEL the stones.

P.S.  If Jaybay is right and it's actually the bile duct, you could also do what I'm doing, which is apple cider vinegar.  That stuff cleans out all your ducts and arteries.

The problem may be below the gallbladder.  Ask your gastro doc about investigation Sphincter of Oddi Dysfunction or sludge in the bile duct before heading into the OR.

That is freaking nuts.  I would give anything for a 39%.  If you're contracting that much you ought to be able to flush those out with olive oil+lemon.
