[Sim19]

Three years is a hell of a long time to wait for gallbladder surgery! Pain in back/stomach is standard with gallbladder problems, as are fevers, diarrhea, and lack of energy. Not heard of trouble peeing or blood spots, but I'm not a doctor. High cholesterol is thought to be the cause of gallbladder problems. I had my gallbladder removed last month and I'm back to fighting fit. Just push to get it removed ASAP. And check with your doctor about blood in pee.

Mine started about October '23. I had a mild pain in my back which I thought was from sitting badly. But it gradually got worse. I had a fever for about a week, random diarrhea and got exhausted after walking 100 yards. I went to the doctor in December '23. They did a urine test and then an ultrasound scan and found a gallblader stone about an inch in size. Had my gallbladder removed earlier this month (January '24). I was in mild discomfort from the surgery for about 2 weeks (just used paracetamol and ibuprofen). But now I'm fine. The pain in my back was still there after surgery, but as the surgeon said, it took 3 months to build up, it might take 3 months to go away. But actually it's starting to go away already. I'm walking, eating, exercising as normal now. I went to a birthday party last weekend and the two women sat either side of me had also had their gallbladders removed! Amazing the number of people who have their gallbladders removed. Aand the things you talk about at parties.

Aye I have gallbladder polyps lots of them one being 8mm in size but surgeon at my hospital says he is concerned but wants MRI mrcp done before surgery but on waiting list so not sure how long after MRI mrcp I'll have to wait but it could be quick glad u got seen and done quick but they do say 1 inch stones are not good

hi guys, i have been having lots of issues in my body, fatty liver, very large prostate, kidney stones and bladder infections, then in 2021, i was told first that i have/had Allure Flutter AF in my Heart at worst it got stuck for 10 days, doing 175 bpm, they gave me whats called the golden bullet in the back of my heart, by fire-ring an electric shock down your throat and into your heart, i was told what happened if my heart stops, you could have a stroke or you could die but we have tried everything, now we have a Professor coming down from London, as we have never down this treatment at Sussex County Hospital before . the day of the treatment arrived and they said everyone will be masked, yours will be removed and the treatment will be done and hopefully your heart will restart as normal? i had been in intensive care in a Amber covid ward in isolation, as i had admitted with covid systems but it turned out that had pneumonia instead, but when in a covid unit you have to stay in one until better, so other than my housemate, one BT engineer, a computer engineer and 2 sky engineers i had seen no one in months as i had been told to isolate as i only have one lung , one of them gave us both Pneumonia, but they believed that my heart had been getting stuck for sometime before getting very sick, and thats possible as i had been having panic acts . it turned out that they killed me twice with the bullet, but they restarted my heart and it returned to normal, until May 2022 when i had food poisoning and my heart got stuck again 174 bpm, they now said that i needed my Gallbladder removed, but my heart came first after another 3 weeks i was sent home no operation, in the first week of June i was back in again my heart stuck at 172bpm again they wanted to remove the Gallbladder again it never happened this time i was in hospital for 6 weeks, still no operation, they told me that i was retraining water and was about to drown as it was up to my chest level and they wanted to put a camera down my throat and another up the other end, once the liquid has been removed, i had the throat one done once and the other one done twice, being as i can not have anesthetic, i had told me over and over again that i was dehydrated and i crashed and had to be given 2 bags of saline before they could start again, they said that my gallbladder was now much smaller and they could see my crohns disease , but nothing else, so here we are its 2024 and i still have gallbladder problems.
