I am out of the hospital for now

Hey all I havent been on the boards in a while. I have been in the hospital. My gallbladder is giving me problems. They have run tons of tests and havent found stones. But next week Wednesday they are going to do a HIDA scan to test the function of my gallbladder. I might have to have it removed. Here in Colorado it is going to be a pain. I have to go to a hospital 2 hours away from my parents and my son. YUCK! Oh well I knew that this was a risk of the surgery. I weighed 164 today. Just 4 pounds from my GOAL!!!! So this will be worth it. Just wanted to update you all and hope you are all fine. Talk to you soon. Amy

Sorry you are ill. Keep us posted. We miss you around here. Jane

WOW!!!! 4 lbs from goal! You go girl!!! I hate to hear about your gall bladder flaring up. I hear that once it's out life is very, very good! smoochies Arlies PS quit being a stranger!

hate to hear that you are not feeling well! but congrats on the wt loss, maybe that gallbladder will wt those 4lbs and you will be at goal if you have to have it out! haha that would be a big gallbladder! hehe DAWN~~ ps got a email from our dr, hes gonna be away alitte longer but hopes to be back this summer! I will let you know as soon as he gives me a date, you are moving back right?

I will be praying for you .. Call me sometime ... Sara

I am glad to hear that you are doing great. Have the surgeon to check your stoma (outlet from the stomach) as it may be a hernia also. I have read that a couple of folks have had this problem and thought it was gallbladder! Sometimes the opening via the pertonieum becomes narrowed and causes pain, and eventually nothing can pass thru..... 4 pounds from goal, way to go! I have 10 pounds to my doctors goal and 20 to my own....
