Gallstones

I suffer, and I mean SUFFER , from gallstones. Because of my severe COPD they are unwilling to take my gallbladder out. So I manage it with diet. This weekend I had an extremely painful event, was taken into hospital, but sent home with 7 days of antibiotics and pain relief.

My biosphere machine is now causing me pain, and 4 days on, the antibiotics are not working,Any Ideas ?

Contact your GP surgery sparkster. They will speak to you on the phone. Explain how you feel.

Get well soon. Xxxx

Yes,thanks sassy, that’s on the list of things to do.. gonna phone the hospital ward as well... just panicking a bit because I’m fast running out of pain relief, and I need someone across the 2 disciplines. Unfortunately my surgery is not the most informative place to go.. not their fault, just snowed under.

As others have said speak to your GP, I’ve had gallstones and they are so so painful you have my sympathy.
