Oh dear, he doesn't need anything else. I hope he isn't in pain and they are managing to make him comfortable.

You are both in my thoughts and prayers.

My husband has Kidney stones a lot. We just had a battle with one last month. While they were doing a CT scan, they also said he had 3 gall stones! We had no idea. They said if they don't bother him...no big deal. Hopefully they never will!!

I hope they are not bothering Don, you don't need this on top of everything else.

Although Drs. have heard of Gall stones!

Poor both of you. Ben had his gall bladder removed a few years ago, he was in excruciating pain caused by gall stones. It will probably be a great relief to him when it is removed but takes a while to recover. Surgeon said although it is keyhole surgery it is still invasive inside the body. Do they intend to operate or try to disperse them? Take care and Good luck to both of you. Xxx

Not gall stones, sludge and polyps. Surgeon will not operate since his heart rate is to low and he is not strong enough to attempt surgery.

He is in congestive heart failure but they still consider him stable.

That's why they call it practicing medicine. Haha If the doctors actually figure it out you're very lucky. Mostly I have found you're really on your own to find specifically what you need or what is wrong and then what to do about it. The doctors can tell you everything it is not, just not what it is. At least this has been my experience. I wish you all the best on your journey and that you are able to find the solutions. you are looking for.

Hi, No gallstones, sludge and polyps. Cannot do surgery, heart ejection rate to low for surgery. Still has pneumonia, might be from swallowing, not sure. Tested him twice yesterday, no one will tell me results. Three Dtrs have signed off.
