<human>: I was told by my GI doc to have my gallbladder out 4 yrs ago, even though normal hida scan and ultrasound. I chose to wait because I have MS and wanted to avoid surgery but am having pain, nausious, gas, bad taste in mouth, lost 10 lbs, still can t eat for past 5 weeks. Went to ER who referred me to surgeon, who doesn t want to take it out because recent hida scan and ultra sound are normal. I scheduled an appt with GI, but not for 10 days. I am at my whits end, should I go back to the ER and beg to have my gallbladder out?
<bot>: Hi.thanks for posting your query at Chat Doctor.I recommend to:- undergo "endoscopic examination" as soon as possible as your symptoms with weight loss are an indication for upper GI endoscopy.furthermore: 1. H.Lori test (Urea Breath Test - BT). If results are positive, you may need to repeat the eradication therapy2. Use a proton pump inhibitor (omeprazole, pantoprazole 40 mg)once daily before breakfast for at least "one month".3. Avoid fat meals and use less salt4. Eat fresh fruits 5. Eat dinner at least 3 hours before going to bed6. Include plain yogurt in your meal7. lose weight if overweight or obese Hope to answer your concern. Wish you good and sound health. Chat Doctor.
