Had ultrasound today, that tied with negative blood tests and X-ray, means I've nothing 'to be concerned about' (easier said than done when your in pain but don't know why). More invasive tests literally 'in the post' so for now a bit less stressed but not looking forward to where they want to put a camera lol. I've Gotta laugh or I'd cry!! Hope everyone ok and had a good day. Regards. Mark x

Hi

Hope you get sorted very soon. I've got have s Huda scan as they think I've lesions from when I had my gall bladder out 32 years ago or could be sphincter of Oddi. I did have Nash with some fibrosis, now very fatty liver with some fibrosis but this doesn't warrant the amount of pain I'm in, that's why I've got to have a Huda scan. Just want to be pain free. How are you now

Sorry, hida scan not Huda!!!!

Hi Lynne. Still got my nagging pain. It's going to be a while before I have my next tests as got to wait for my appt. this adding to my already abnormal anxiety levels

Not sure what a hida scan is...??

Sounds like things can be removed, it can leave complications and pain.

Sorry to hear you have having a tough time. Let me know how you get on

Hi

Hope you start to feel better soon. My consultant now says I've got very fatty liver with some fibrosis, also thinks I've leisions/sphincter of Oddi from when I had my gall bladder out 32 years ago, u mentioned this over 2 years ago and they fobbed me off!!
