It's Gotta come Out!

Reporter Q.
on 3/5/10 1:44 am - Azle, TX

That is the final word from the Doc.  The gallbladder is bad and will just get worse.  So, sometime in the next 2 weeks, it's coming out.

The ejection rate on the Hida Scan yesterday was 14%.  So whatever that means, it ain't good.  I am still having pain today and if I never knew where that sucker was before, I know exactly where it is now.  The pain today is because my gb has not drained from yesterday.

So, What I knew it wasn't, is what it is.  I am bummed, depressed and shocked.  Will keep you posted on exact dates.

Que,

I'm so sorry you have to have surgery and you are in pain.  Any surgery is frightening especially since you have seen TOO many hospitals! 

Considering all of the things you could have had that is associated with abdominal pain, that's a good diagnosis!

Try to see the good side(s):  It's nothing worse; it's treatable; you'll feel SO MUCH better once it is removed, etc!  

I'll be watching for updates! 

I have two sides to my brain - a right side and a left side.  The trouble is sometimes there is nothing left in the right side and nothing right in the left side.

(((Que))) I'm sorry. I am praying for you and hope the pain subsides before surgery and then that surgery goes well. Take care.

I wish you didn't have to have surgery or the pain.  It is good to know it's this though and easier to "fix" ya up.  I still have mine but everyone I know that has taken that useless sucker out said it's well worth it. 

Please let me know when you schedule.

Hugs,

I'm sorry you are in so much pain and have to go under the knife again.

I will keep you in my prayers for a smooth surgery and recovery.

RNY on 12/15/06 with
Mama Q, compared to the pain you're in now, the surgery recovery is going to be a snap. I'd say max 3 days of serious recovery.  I'm sorry you have to do it, but glad it's a fairly simple solution.

 Que....I had my gallbladder out in Dec.    It really isn't that bad of a surgery.   Actually it is pretty easy although I got so much gas I had pain from that for almost 3 weeks.   Not good but hey...I get gas so easy that doesn't surprise me that happened.    Get that sucker out ASAP trust me....you will be able to eat and not be in pain or get sick from eating anymore.    Good luck to you and the surgery is pretty easy.   Don't worry it will be OK !!!


Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE;   COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN;  AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!!    THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.
