Unexplained Nausea

[jbags]

I am 30 years old and for the past 8 to 9 years I have had bouts of unexplained nausea. I can go a week with no problems then on the other hand I can get nauseas 2 to 3 times per day for absoulutely no reason. It has really taken a toll on my life. I can go out and be having a good time and then boom it hits for no reason what so ever. I have had blood work dont, endoscopy, ultrasounds, and a hida scan. My hida scan showed an ejection fracture of 35%. which is very low. they are thinking that is what it might be but cant guarantee it. Has anyone else had anything like this. I dont vomit but get very close. It is horrible. plus I hate vomiting.

I can't say what to do. If no stones/sludge were found, then it can be a motility problem with
1. gallbladder
2. biliary duct (biliary dyskinesia)
3. sphincter of Oddi (sphincter of Oddi dysfunction - SOD)

ERCP is an investigation done during upper endoscopy. They inject contrast substance into your bile duct and monitor its distribution on x-ray. They can also make manometry (pressure measurement) of sphincter of Oddi.

my main problem is nausea. it comes on for no reason at all. Not stress related, nor food related. I do not have gerd or heart burn or any other symptoms for that matter. just out of the blue for no reason Nausea comes over me. I have to take compazine to get the nausea to go away. durning my endo they checked for h-pylori that was negative, no gerd. during my ultrasound there was no sludge or stones. I had a ct scan with contast that showed nothing and the hida that showed 35% E. F.   the surgeon said that there would be a 50/50 chance that removing the gallbladder could solve it. she says it is possible that the gb is backing up which then causes the nausea. Not sure. But im not sure I want to jump and get it removed with only a 50/50 shot..you pre-med

i have not noticed pain. what is an ercp?   i only know that my gallbladder is functioning at like 35% which they say is low..other wise my endoscopy, ultrasound and other tests show nothing. How you know so much

Have you ever noticed pain after a fatty meal? Pain radiates toward the back or right shoulder?
Beside gallstones, motility disorder of biliary duct (biliary dyskinesia) or sphincter of Oddi dysfunction (SOD) are possible. Investigation called ERCP is needed for diagnosis.
