Good news and bad news.

Good news - I don't have gallstones.

Bad news - I don't have gallstones.

To clarify - I've had constant pain for the past week, I'm nauseous a good chunk of the time, I can't eat without pain/nausea/gassiness and there is apparently, no bloody reason for it.

While I should be glad I might not need surgery after all, I'm not exactly happy. It's the vertigo all over again. No answers and no feeling better.

I need to go do laundry now.

*hugs* There's just no answers yet, right? They're still working on finding out what it is?

More bad news - You don't need to have stones to have problems with your gallbladder. Some people, instead of having actual stones, have what we call "sludge" in there. It causes smaller, more easily cleared obstructions than stones, but it's still just as painful. May I ask what the ultrasound report said?

I'm so sorry. I wish I had better words for you, but I don't.

That really really sucks. :/ Hopefully it turns out to be something that's easily fixable. Sending you good karma (still).

I hope Epona's suggestion of 'sludge' is confirmed by your doc - at least then you'll have a diagnosis and it sounds curable. Chin up, love. ::hugs::

Even more hugs... don't go with what the technician said -- they're not really supposed to tell you anything, that's the doctor's job. Wait until after your appointment.

Oh, shit. I"m glad you don't have the gall stones but shit. I think the worst part of something like this is not knowing what the bloody hell is going on. It freaked me out for months with the fibro.

I really hope you get some answers soon.

Hope all is better soon. Properly better. All of it.

I have to say that would be an interesting medical certificate. "Miss S can't attend work for the next two weeks. She is suffering from sludge." :)

Take care of yourself, sweetie, or I shall be forced to come over there and take care of you. In say, early July.
