You really described exactly what I went through. I know the doctors and nurses explained everything but I was so out of it I could hardly remember what they said. You have really brought this altogether for me and I thank you so much.
I just went through this for the past 3 weeks in the hospital. Had all the same test done and like yours mine was “questionable “. They found out via hida scan and determined that my gallbladder wasn’t working. Had it removed a day ago. This recovery is brutal. Had five holes in me. It’s a long road, and very painful recovery but will be worth it in the end
Feeling amazing now. All of the issues I was having before getting it removed are gone. My diet has changed. I no longer eat fried foods or a lot of fatty foods. Since surgery I’ve switch to a blue zone diet, or for the most part a pescatarian diet. And I’ve never felt better also spending lots of time in the gym. I have notice as well that since my gallbladder was removed I e found it easier for me to gain weight which is something that has always been very hard for me because of a high metabolism. Not sure if that’s is common after surgery or not, but my metabolism has slowed down and I’ve been able to gain a healthy weight and easily maintain it. I hope this helps.
Im scheduled for gallbladder surgery on October 4. Praying for smooth surgery and quick recovery. Will definitely take pain meds!! And hoping i can get out of bed easily...memory foam bed. Im practicing my log rolling and pull up w arms not abs.
I am scheduled to have my gall bladder removed on October 8, 2024. Mine, too, is at 4% according to the HIDA scan. A bit scared of surgery, but know it has to be done. Praying everything goes well.
@@syedadilsyed3570 surgery went well ❤️🩹 third day beginning and able to almost be back to normal. I still have to take it easy and sore. In one week I should be good and after two I should be nearly healed. Thanks.
@@mukobwajanaaimee4279 iam fine... but i avoid foods with fat .I eat more healthy vegetables etc chicken and some red meat and fish.Less cookies bread and biscuits .For sure its not the same without gallbladder if you avoid bad and unhelathy food you will be fine.
@@Von199X hi you have done it now i suppose?Yes you can sit after some hours but take it easy.Also iam sure the doctors will tell you to get up and walk alot.
I experienced this this past Saturday night . Had the same tests . They were questioning if I should do a HIDA scan or not . I remained in the ER the whole time. They decided not to do the HIDA scan and go straight to surgery.
I will say they had me leave that night . And it led me to not be able to get out of bed at night . Idk it was scary to just have surgery and then be sent home right after 😢
I went back to work the next day I never experienced any of this I could have went to work right after surgery if I wanted this is the first time I have ever heard of anyone having these problems breathing tube ?
@@spencerjones1771 good! I started a carnivore diet and it really helped my symptoms. You should look up Dr. Berg and see what he says about the subject
Mine was 7% functional. No gallstones. Had pain, bloating, gastric reflux, diarrhea, fatigue, nausea, constipation, and had yellow and white stool. Had this for 3 years and was misdiagnosed and gaslighted by doctors. Finally i fought for a hida scan and it came back as Gallbladder dysfunction (Failure). 7% function! Lol I tried everything to stop it and manage the symptoms with limited results. Cbd oil, Curcumin, NAC and gastritis supplements helped a lot. I feel i have no choice but get it out. My surgery is this friday.. i hope everything works out and i have a good recovery.
Dental pain can be far worse (like 3 wisdom teeth out in the chair), and a torn / dislocation on a joint, but biliary colic can be right up there, and possibly similar levels to kidney stone pain. Different types of pain though. Once the gallbladder is out, you never have to face gallstone related pain ever again so that is a big plus. If you've had a spinal injury that has affected nerves etc. pain can shift around and be really indistinct as to the location which gets frustrating and confusing.
I removed my gallbladder a week ago. Yes everything she mentioned is correct. The only thing is that I am left with is gas pain. Will this ever go away.
Left the ER because they mentioned this surgery, they said it had to be done. Wrong, I’ve lived 20 years with gallbladder issues, I’m sure I’ll die with them. My gallbladder is infected or something, I’ll just take antibiotics and I’ll be fine.
My father died from complications of pancreatitis as a result of choosing to ignore years of gallbladder pain. I’m having mine out in 2 weeks time. Not going to make the same mistake.
@@syedadilsyed3570 I had my surgery back in May. Unfortunately I needed a second surgery after a tiny piece of gallstone got stuck in my bile duct. All good now, though. Good luck if you’re having surgery. 😊
Thank you for your video. I just went through the gallbladder maze myself. 10 years of back pain which led to gallbladder attacks that felt like heart attacks. Did Ultrasound, multiple blood labs and I.v./g.I. Cat scan all which came back normal. I was unable to eat for about a 6 week period (ensure clear, ensure almost exclusively) finally they ran HIDA scan and it showed gallbladder operating at 0%. Just had it removed 4 days ago. Pathology report said Chronic Cholecystitis. Thank goodness I did the HIDA test. Now just looking forward to hopefully feeling good again.
I’m currently resting in bed after surgery. I was determined to see if I could save mine. The last attack was the worst I have ever had, thought I was dying. Well its out now and I hope it’s onwards and upwards now ❤
Retired nurse here with the exact same diagnosis. My EF was 7%. Going for my surgery very soon. It took about 5 months and 5 tests before the problem was finally identified. It was the most painful and frustrating 5 months ever.
@@magn18 stabbing pain in the upper right quadrant, especially after eating. Bloating, full feeling all the time, which was worse in the mornings. Nausea.
1 week away from surgery, this is exactly the sort of video I needed. Plenty of info, no too gory, thank you!!
