Have gallstones

no consultation after MRI

GP practise let me go out the door after blood test without a doctor to see me despite my concerns and physical state

went for an operation today the 28th after I got my blood match done and my covid swab done

Only to b told my op had been cancelled without any warning

Considering taking acid tablets rather the op!!

It is fare to say I have ben lucky but it has been rough!!!!!

Hi Riche,

It sounds like a stressful situation for you. Can you perhaps request an appointment with a senior GP partner to discuss these concerns?

Hopefully the surgical team will re-organise your surgery soon.

Here is a link to our information on gallstones;

Thank you for your replyI'm unclear if I can see a GP yet

Must investigate this

Funny thing is, my old GP is the senior practicing doctor but now does part time and past me on to another

They know that they let me down, after said incident they lavished attention to my treatment, could do enough!

As for my surgery, I am considering medication options

This depends of course on the results of the MRI

Loads of stone a no brainer but if not excessive

Then possibly ursodeoxycholic acid tablets

I just want to explore all the options and not just one

I know we can function without a gallbladder but if it is possible to avoid the knife and any side effects Well
