HIDA scan update

Having one at the hospital to see if bile duct is blocked by a sludge ball in my gallbladder. Pain could be gas bc need bile to digest food. Take gasx 4 times a day. Avoid dairy. Something about bubbles and fat. So onto the next diagnostic. Thank you all for your support

They can just take that sucker out, and you'll be fine. So I would root for that myself.

My husband's elderly aunt had gallstones she didn't know about until one of them blocked her pancreatic duct and caused her to develop pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas). I understand the pain was severe and she got pretty sick, but she made a full recovery after her gall bladder was removed.

I hope your story has as happy of an ending as hers did.
