Hi, I haven't been on here in awhile, hope everyone is doing good and enjoying the summer!! I started feeling crappy in January and on Wednesday go in for a Hida Scan, ( Ultra Sound and blood work haven't shown anything) just wondering if alot of you have had gallbladder problems and if I will feel better getting it removed? I have bouts of pain that at times is almost unbearable and other times where it is just annoying enough to make me not enjoy the day.

This has been the best decision besides marriage and kids that I have ever made!!

I actually just had my gallbladder removed a few weeks ago & it helped me a LOT!  I was having constant nausea & pain (more annoying constant pain then horrible bouts of pain).  I went in for my 6 month follow-up for my weight loss surgery & told them about the issues I was having.  They ordered an ultrasound & found my gallbladder full of gallstones.  I had the ultrasound on a Monday & by that Friday I was in for the surgery to remove my gallbladder.  Once I got through the recovery of the surgery I feel great!  I'm so glad I did it; the way I was feeling before the surgery was 'sucky' to say the least.  Having the gallbladder surgery literally put an end to the pain & the nausea almost immediately (just recovery aches & pains). 

Keep us posted on how your scan goes on Wednesday!
