Bile reflux

I have been suffering from bile refluxing into my stomach for approximately two years. This was confirmed by two endoscopies within a year performed by same surgeon. I also had a ultra sound, blood work and a hida scan with a ejection fraction of 89%, all were normal. I am currently taking sulcrafate four times daily, the surgeon also prescribed reglan (which I am afraid to take from all the horror stories I've heard). So, I'm just taking the sucralfate and avoiding fatty foods. The sucralfate helps, along with the diet, but still get pain and nausea. Although my hide scan came back normal, I'm thinking the ejection rate of 89% has something to do with my condition. My PCP said it was to high, and said I should consult with a surgeon for a possible gallbladder removal. Has anybody had a similar situation?
