HiDA scan, Low Ejection, but no stones...

My relevant background is that I have had what seemed to be a severe gallbaldder attack lasting about 12 hours which sent me to ER, and have had minor residual pain on and off (mostly on) since.  It definitely responds to food (increases), and I had just eaten a meal full of classic gallbladder no-no's prior to the attack.  I was given a HIDA scan, which showed normal uptake but only a 6% ejection rate, but I'm told I don't have stones.
Does anyone know where to find studies which relate to this?  
Is there any information on rates of improvement verses degeneration in this situation or is it unstudied?  
If I don't actually have stones or (as far as I know) signs of infection, what are the possible causes of such a small ejection rate?  
Is there any relationship to Celiac's and gallbladder trouble like this?  (I do have celiac's by the way)
Really feel like I need more information!
Thank you!!!

My husband didn't have a Hida scan, but it took 3 trips to the ER before they realized it was pancreatitis caused by a diseased gall bladder.  He was in ICU and 4 hospitals total before he came home on a walker and on insulin.  Still too weak to get his gall bladder removed.....that happened 4 months after he was admitted.  Don't quit going and hopefully, your dr. will insist on  a CT scan or something to determine your problem.
He had several attacks at home that he just 'rode out' and didn't go.  Sure wonder if removing that gall bladder would have saved all that hospital time.

Thanks for the comment!  
I am going to have it out today.  I do know that some of these problems are genetic, and I spoke with close blood relative who had his removed just a few months ago due to a low ejection rate.  Apparently they couldn't tell until they were actually operating that there was a physical deformity in the tube coming from the gallbladder which was causing the pain and inability to eject the bile properly.  Even if there's only a chance that my situation is similar, it seems worth while to be certain and just have it removed, especially since I'm in pain.  
I hate to undergo surgery honestly, but I can't see a better solution.
Thanks!!!

Good luck to you.   One thing I learned is to be persistent.  If we hadn't been persistent about switching hospitals and doctors in the middle of our deal, my husband likely wouldn't 'be here today.  It was that serious.  So be your own advocate and insist on more tests to discover what is wrong.  If this doctor won't, find one who will. Twice they gave him morphine and just sent him home from the ER, and two of the three times he went by ambulance.  By the third trip, it was full blown!!  He was on life support at one point.  Don't mess around, because if the duct gets blocked....and his wasn't stones, it was sludge....it can be devastating.  Let me know what you find out.  And yours may not be like his case at all....just saying that the gall bladder can be a bad one when it flares up and things are so close in there......it's like a domino effect sometimes.
