Oh the gall!
Last Tuesday, (Feb.26th) I started with intense pain between my breastbone, and on my right side. The pain was also radiating out my back between my shoulder blades. I had intense nausea, vomiting and gas pain. It was terrible. I threw up until my esophagus swelled shut. The doctor is most sure I had a stone stuck in the duct of my gall bladder. Further testing revealed that it is not functioning (dumping) the way that it should be. My doctor unfilled me all the way. I am now on a low fat, liquid diet. I am hungry all the time and having an awful time sticking to liquid diet. Although I'm not in pain, I still feel tired and uncomfortable. I know that the gall bladder will have to come out soon. I am hoping I can wait until the second week of April. My mom will be back from Florida by then and can help me hold down the fort. I am so afraid that with my band unfilled I will gain alot of weight. I am sad, angry, frustrated and very, very bummed right now. This is a very low time for me. :thumbup:
