 Posted: 05/10/07 - 08:42 Post subject: Gallbladder - Negative tests |
  |
|
I have been having problems with intermittent nausea for a few months and cramping in the right side. Now the past two weeks it has been pretty constant. With vomitting, pain and fatigue. I went for a CT scan yesterday and am awating the results.
So far I have had bloodwork, sonogram, hida scan with CCK all "normal".
My Gastro actually said he is convinced it is my gallbladder but that "THEY" frown upon him removing organs from people on instinct alone.
Atleast he believes me! |

| Maybe its not your gallbladder because i went through alot of tests and i had er docs tell me im a liar and i even had a gastro doc tell me i was a faker, but when i went to the last gastro he told me about the CCK and when i went i cried all through the second half because of the pain i was in and it came back positive and i ended up having my gallbladder removed even tho their are no stones, but if you are coming back negative on everything then maybe you should look into it being something else on your right side like your appendix before its too late...ps the ct wont show anything if theres nothing on the sonogram..it sucks |

| I also had numerous tests done on my Gallbladder and all of them turned out normal. My pain came on really quickly, I woke up one morning and never felt normal again. The doctors in the ER wrote it off as the flu 3 different times, but after 3 weeks of it not getting better, I was given an ultrasound and a hidascan which both came out normal. My dad is a doctor and he was 100% convinced that this was gallbladder problems. As I was having the hidascan done, the Tech in the room told me that just becuase a test turns out normal, that does not mean that it is not the gallbladder. Some problems with the GB just may not show up on any of these tests. 3 days after my scan, I was in the hospital having it removed. Turns out mine was very infected and had actually swollen to like twice its size. It had actually started to grow small fiber tipe things and had started attatching itself to the other body parts around it. So, I can testify to the fact that even if all of your tests turn out normal, that does not mean that your GB is totally normal. |
