I seem to be having gall bladder issues.
I have an ultrasound and upper GI scheduled for the 8th of December. I get an intense pain on my right side below my ribcage after I eat heavy... Thanksgiving triggered the reaction nicely. The pain is usually a brief throb or surge and then it subsides for 5-10 minutes and repeats this pattern for several hours. This is a classic inflamed gall bladder/gall stone symptom. Lately, I have a dull pain (constant) in the same location which intensifies when I sit down. I believe this is because my abdomen is compressed when I sit and I am applying pressure to my gall bladder. The only comfy way to sit is to stretch out by sitting on the edge of my chair and leaning back (like I was in a lazy boy). Anybody have their gall bladder removed. Any bad side-effects or complications to report afterwards. |

Ok,
I am not looking for a flame war here, and I have not had my gall bladder removed, but most of the people I know who have had there gall bladder removed as an "optional surgery", have only continued to have problems of different sorts with their digestive systems after surgery.... There are some "natural" or holistic ways to remove gall stones... Be prepared to sit on a tiolet for a minimum of 12 hours.... It involves a quart of virgin cold pressed olive oil, and about a dozen lemons... It's doesn't sound like fun,(in fact, it's not) but it is a lot better than surgery... And, yes, I am speaking from personal experience.... -Thom |
