My Saga Continues...

My CT scan showed a leak from the gallbladder surgery. My RNY was perfect, no leaks. Now surgeon has ordered a hipa scan. After this, he determines options. He mentioned possibly having surgery to put a scope in my abdomen, wa**** out, then insert a new drain. UGGGG After almost 2 months, I am an emotional wreck, have no energy, my tummy skin hurts from all the drain bandage change-outs - finally found good low trauma tape - and I barely get dressed except to go back to doctor for more blood work or tests. Hoping I'm getting closure to the end of this nightmare.

Lapband surgery in 2009 -  Revision to RNY August 13, 2013 with gallbladder removal.

I'm sending you good thoughts and prayers.  I hope after they fix the leak that you will be on the "up" and feeling better. 

Never accept NO for an answer.

How can your gallbladder leak if its gone? I have never heard of that. I had my gb out and ten years later a stone that remained behind got big enough to block my bile duct. That was painful. I hope they figure it out soon and get you well so you can enjoy your new body.

Hi, I just read your post and if you don't mind me asking what kind of pain did you have with the stone in your bile duct.. They are checking me now for that.   I had my surgery in April and they removed my gallbladder at the same time and I have been hurting for a good three months and its getting worst. .  How did they remove it?   I went today and had 6 xrays done, and tons of blood work.  

 

Thanks

You poor thing!  I'm so sorry to hear you're going through all this.  Hang in there.  Let's hope that now that your doc has results from the scan they can figure out a way to get you on the mend.
