3 months

Aug 19, 2014

So I am about 3 months out and still having this soreness/pain in my stomach an it shouldn't be happening according to the dr.  They ran a CT scan and that came back fine so this morning I had to do the HIDA scan to check gallbladder.  They ran out of the injectable hormone that causes the gall bladder to empty so I had to drink Ensure that has 10g fat and 20g sugar.  :(  Must I tell you that dumping is the most miserable feeling I have felt in a very long time.  I felt like I was dying!  I can not imagine any person wanting to ever feel that way!!!  I will find out a little later how that comes back and what the plan is.  Still having the esophageal spasms but still on the med cocktail that seems to be working.  Tried to get off the Prevacid but that was a no go as it made the spasms come back and the side effects of the higher dose of the Cardizem were all bad so back to what we started with.  Whatever works I suppose!

updated- my gallbladder isn't functioning right so it's being evicted on the 29th. Back to surgery I go :( bit at least they know what's wrong now.
