HIDA Scan Tomorrow

My doc has been very proactive about all the stomach pains-including occasional classic gallbladder symptoms that I've been having since last fall.  I've had several ultrasounds etc over the past 6 months that show nothing.  One last evaluation of my gall bladder is the HIDA scan tomorrow.

I'll let you know how it turns out.

Good luck..mine showed me at the absolute bottom of normal...but the ct scan showed pylops on mine so I had them go ahead and schedule my gallbladder for removal...been gone almost a year now and haven't missed it a bit.

I also have this "balloon" just under my ribs on the right side.  I think there's something going on, but the doc needs data to get the surgery approved.

My GB came out in the 80s after I lost 60 lbs with WW.  I very well remember describing the pain as a concrete block under my ribs on the right side. 

I hope this determines what is going on and you can get it fixed.
