Hi Everyone, I posted a while back with no response. Not sure if I did something wrong? Im going in for gallbladder surgery Tuesday. I'm scared it's the wrong thing to do. I had lots of lab work & testing done. The lab work shows that I'm as healthy as can be. I had 2 ultrasounds. The first one I had 2 different ultrasounds, abdominally & vaginal. This one showed a cyst on my ovary which was a functioning cyst. The cyst disappeared when I went to GYN & they did another ultrasound, it was gone. Also showed I had some polyps on my gallbladder & my gallbladder & liver was slightly enlarged. Dr sent me for a Hida Scan & they did another ultrasound. The Hida Scan showed nothing, my gallbladder function was 91%. When they gave me the CCK thru IV my stomach hurt so bad I thought I was going to pass out. I visited with a surgeon. He says that since I had pain with the test, it tells him that my gallbladder is functioning but with pain?But, when I have talked to other people. They say pain with that test is 'normal' & everyone has pain with that test? I talked with someone on another board, that says gallbladder polyps are reason enough to have a gallbladder problem & there is such a thing as an over functioning gallbadder. At 91% my gallbladder would be considered as over functioning.
I am so worried I'm making the wrong decision. I don't want to make this worse than it is. I have pressure under my right rib, I get acid reflux & heartburn when I eat anything fatty. I have severe gas. I get bloated. I'm tired all the time. I have been running fevers at least 3x's a week. My back hurts like crazy all the time, mostly on the right side and in between my shoulder blades.
I went to a different Doctor. He said I may have colitis, and I need to have a colonoscopy done. I was supposed to visit with a GI Dr yesterday. Doctor was closed because of the blizzard we had. I was reallly counting on talking with him about all of this thats going on. I have cancelled the gallbladder surgery once. I really don't no what else to do?
