what is this

Hey there dbac. I am sorry you are suffering like this. Have you checked your gallbladder??? You said you went to the doc 2 times...did you go to the same doc twice, or two different docs? The reason I ask, is because maybe if you went to the same doctor twice, it wouldn't hurt to get a 2nd opinion. Also, if he hasn't yet, I'd suggest getting your gallbladder checked. Let me know how things go. Wishing you the best!

Here is some information I have found for you on gallbladder testing... Gallbladder Tests Gallbladder problems are diagnosed using various tests. These might include: Liver function tests (LFTs) — These are blood tests that can show evidence of gallbladder disease. Check of the blood’s amylase or lipase levels to look for pancreatic inflammation — Amylase and lipase are enzymes produced in the pancreas. Complete blood count (CBC) — A CBC looks at levels of different types of blood cells, such as white blood cells. A high white blood cell count might indicate infection. Ultrasound — Ultrasound testing uses sound waves to image the intra-abdominal organs, including the gallbladder. Abdominal X-ray — This test might show evidence of gallbladder disease, such as gallstones. Computed tomography (CT) — This scan constructs detailed X-ray images of the abdominal organs. HIDA scan — During this test, a radioactive material, called hydroxy iminodiacetic acid (HIDA), is injected into the patient. The radioactive material is taken up by the gallbladder to measure gallbladder function. This test also is referred to as cholescintigraphy. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) — This test uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to produce detailed pictures. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) — This is a procedure during which a tube is placed down the patient’s throat, into the stomach, then into the small intestine. Dye is injected and the ducts of the gallbladder, liver, and pancreas can be seen on X-ray. Symptoms of Gallbladder Disease steady, severe pain in the upper abdomen that increases rapidly and lasts from 30 minutes to several hours pain in the back between the shoulder blades pain under the right shoulder nausea or vomiting abdominal bloating recurring intolerance of fatty foods colicb belching gas indigestion I hope this information helps you out some.... Wishing you the best!
