Hello all my IL friends! Well today I had an endoscope, and I have been told that things looked good. But, I am questioning this as they did a biopsy on something, and I do not understand this.  So, this leads back to the issue of pain.  I will be seeing Dr. Rantis tomorrow, and hope we can come to some decision about what to do.  It may just come down to going ahead and removing the gallbladder to see if this solves it.  But, what do I do if it does not?  Is this just something that comes with loss of so much weight and I have lost the fat padding?

Don't lose hope girly girl- hopefully tomorrow Dr. Rantis will be able to put your mind at ease with a decision you both can live with and relieve some of this pain you are having. I have kept you in my prayers and wish you all the luck in the world tomorrow!!! Katie

Katie, thank you...I am leaning towards having the gallbladder removed.  One less thing to cause less problems in the future.

Gall bladder pain - miserable as I have been there done that. Dr Jimmy and his dad saved my life in '91 when I went through a horrendous illness with it. They will get to the bottom of it. Hang in there as you well know you are in great hands. Yes, GB issues are common with loosing the fat. I am not really up on the whole thing but it will affect it. Google for the info while you are waiting. Chris
