Epigastric intense pressure radiating to back, lots of burping somtimes right side pain, but Gallbladder Ultrasound showed no stones, no obstruction, no thickening. 1 Doc says take it out, another states not to that it would be uneccessary Surgery. Not sure what to do. Hida Scan showed low ejaction fraction of less then 5% emptying. Do these sound like Gallbladder symptoms? its' seems to be getting worse now starting to get nausea with it.

I recently had the HIDA Scan which showed 3% ejection rate. I went to a surgeon who said he would offer me surgery but could not reccomend it. I have heard the success rate for gallbladder removal with this type of problem is about 85% helpful. I am nervous to have surgery but have had pain for 4 months and lost 10 pounds. I am going to get a second opinion.
