Have you had a HIDA-scan?

by tienanais, Feb 25, 2006 12:00AM
what is a hida scan please

by myproblem, Feb 25, 2006 12:00AM
HIDA-Scan is a liver, gallbladder, and biliary system function test. You are injected with a "tracer" drug that can be scanned as it moves through your liver, gallbladder, and biliary ducts. It shows how well they function, and can detect many abnormalities. My Dr. referred to it as "plan B" when my abdominal ultrasound was normal.

Tienanais, it sounds like gallstones, which can be cured by a healthy lowfat diet.  Foods ilke pear juice and apple juice at the onset of the discomfort help so much!  Also, 2 tbsp., of apple cider vinegar.  I have had another ultrasound after my gallbladder was 1/2 full of stones, and there are half as many there now.  The lemon juice & olive oild cleansing really worked for me!  Hope you feel better soon!
