Just curious, in his blood work how are his EOS numbers? I have suffered same symptoms, finally discovered I had parasites, but they don't always show up in the stool tests. Dr's only test for parasites using the "Conventional" stool test. Look up the "Medicine Functional Comprehensive" stool test. Much, much more accurate reading. I learned the long hard way. I don't know if this helps or not, but turns out this is what I needed. I suffered through way too much pain, only learn about this.

Going to have another colonoscopy/endoscopy mid September. Since 2010 have had 5 of these, different doctors telling me all is fine! I'm tired and feel like giving up.. I showed this to my husband now waiting to see what Dr. Says. I stumbled upon your article searching for answers, thank you for a bit more clarity on the subject.

My general practitioner sent me to a surgeon to discuss gall bladder removal as a resolution to months of discomfort. Each of them referenced studies indicating positive outcomes for those with this condition. I read the study results and decided to have the surgery. Prior to surgery I began a self-imposed anti-inflammatory diet in an attempt to eliminate the need for the surgical solution. I avoided gluten, processed meats, etc.
Although my symptoms had not changed prior to surgery, evidently the diet had reduced some of the inflammation and lab biopsy of the gall bladder indicated moderate inflammation rather than the severe inflammation we expected results to show.
Note: Although the anti-inflammation diet must have improved the condition of my gall bladder itself while on the diet I had not experienced less pain or fewer physical symptoms. (diarrhea, constipation, severe burning pain, etc.) while on the diet.
In the three months since the surgery, my bowel has settled down, no more burning pain, etc.. Thus, my internist, surgeon and I agree that surgery was the correct solution to a 98% ejection rate.
I hope this helps others with a HIDA scan results indicating a high ejection rate. I realize my 98% rate was extremely high and unusual but you're reading these comments because you are seeking information related to the experiences of others and I truly hope my story helps you make your decision about a surgical solution for a high bile ejection rate.

I have been dealing with "attacks" in the middle of the night for 6 years now. Nausea, explosive diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain that won't go away. Have had 2 CT scans which were both normal and yesterday had a HIDA scan showing an ejection fraction of 82%. I know have a referral to a GI, but I'd like to go prepared with the most up to date info that is available. Can you help me out?
