Ultrasound tomorrow-gallstones? - Digestive Disorders Message Board

Hi!

I posted a few wks back about symptoms that I thought might be associated with some kind of gall bladder issue. Well, I finally went to my primary MD and she also suspects a gall bladder issue. I am getting an ultrasound tomorrow. Hopefully I will get a tech who will "narrate" the procedure so I'll know tomorrow if they find anything.

I'm not so worried about finding gall stones or sludge or inflammation, I'm more concerned about what if they don't find anything??? I mean these symptoms are getting ridiculous to live with.

So, wish me luck. I'm going to get a snack as I am NPO at midnight!

Jennie, I am in the same boat. The tests came back negative. Let me know if they find anything.

mine was fine too. Then they did the Endoscopic test and took a biopsy of the gb and found cholesterol crystal (microscopic) so they said they would turn to stones. I am having surgery July 31st.
