is this gallbladder too or something else?

Question

for about a month now i've had symptoms appearing vaguely but are now worse. in fact just went for upper gi w/small bowel contrast view. anyway most of my pain is in center and left side not right (but I hear pain can radiate) it's near the left and under belly button area. gassy, very nauseated, i feel crampy like i am going to constantly have the runs but don't, bloated or full feeling, have a hard time sleeping at night because of back pain. also woke up in middle of night a few times with a clammy sweaty feeling like i was going to be sick. when i went for the upper gi, the fizzy stuff and barium literally put me in pain immediately (don't know if that's normally what that stuff does) my pain doesn't necessarily happen after I eat it's getting pretty constant now. spent weekend in hospital where they did an abdominal cat scan & pelvic ultrasound--found nothing. a hida scan is next but i had this done about 2 years ago when i had some similar but not so intense problems.

Answer 1

Yes, gallbladder pain can radiate. It can feel like back pain or even stomach cramps, and can make you feel short of breath (called Murphy's sign). And if you get a colon cleanse with an inflammed/infected gallbladder, like the first guy said, it could rupture and you may die a slow and horrible death of peritonitis. Have you had an ultrasound of the actual gallbladder? This can bother you even when you are not eating, and intermittant pain can be a sign of passing the gall stones. I have done this a few times and it was the worst pain I ever felt in my life, even worse than child birth. There are the five F's risk factors of gallbladder disease: Female, Fat, Fertile, Family history, and over Forty. If you have more than three, you should get rechecked, especailly if you have had a baby recently (that IS IF you are a female).

Answer 2

I'm having the equal disorders, and I had no suggestion what it would be till anybody on right here instructed my gallbladder. Just received it demonstrated, and I must wait til Baby is born to get it eliminated. As so much as I crave fried meals and such, I must keep away. I cannot even devour spaghetti and that is my favourite with this being pregnant. High sodium meals additionally aggravate the gallbladder, so pay attention. I understand the anguish you are pain and generally it makes you simply desire the youngster out, however don't forget, it's going to be over quickly, the episodes do not final eternally, and u could have the surgical procedure after u give. It'll be ok. : )

Hi CC

The most improtant thing you can do for your body is do a colon cleanse. You must remove the toxins out of the body. All of the processed food we americans eat stays in the colon and gets into the blood and that causes illness' and disease.

Also, give your body a rest from "normal food" and eat fruits and vegetables for the next 3-5 days. Drink a gallon of distilled water a day and get some daily exercise. You will be a new person in a week. You''ll be amazed what nutrition can do (heals the body).

Best of health to you
