I have been diagnosed with a couple of small <4 mm polyps in my gallbladder. I also have a low ejection fraction 18% result on my HIDA scan. The surgeon I saw told me to wait and see if I can live with the discomfort and not to rush into surgery. He did say I am not in any danger of perforationEsophageal perforation Gastrointestinal perforation or infection of the gallbladder. My question is does the build up of bile in the GB cause polyps? And can the build-up eventually leadLead poisoning to infection if the GB doesn't empty completely? I have been losing weight and down to 103 lbs so wondering how long I should wait? Thanks for your help.
