Hi,

The bile duct can be enlarged for many different reasons. You could consider calling the surgery back and ask to speak to a GP and request they talk you through the ultrasound report and exactly what was seen. They are best placed to do this as they have access to your medical records and reason whey you were referred for the ultrasound scan.

Best wishes.

I’ve rang back and said she’s busy so will get them to ring Boxing Day. The woman said to see if there is infection or a gallstone that’s all she said 😫
