Yes called 111 at 4 pm. Thought it was Possible heart attack. Pain went from stomach to left side of chest. After 4 hrs. 999 called 10 minutes later the confirmed not heart. Told to go A & E. At 11 pm CT scan confirmed Gall bladder. Antibiotics for 24 hrs then key hole surgery. Stayed in another 3 days. Walking wounded for next two weeks. No more indigestion. Good luck. Please don't worry. Safe easy op.
Glad you've got your gall bladder dealt with - for those whose poor health precludes full anaesthetic, an alternative procedure under sedation is to put a probe down the throat, through the stomach and remove gall stones from the duct - I had that done to rectify repeated pancreatitis.
Thank you Hutch. Theres a small possibility it will be done today, otherwise ‘soon’ which worries me. He's still on the iv but I told him to ask about eating as he’s just sick each time he eats. I guess they know what they are doing. I’ll pass your experience on to him. Thanks again x
Hopefully he will be fine soon, but no longer having to suffer the excruciating pain that follows just a small amount of fat in your meal comes as a blessed relief. Good luck.
I'm glad that our pitch is on the higher part of the site Dustydog.
Not a good “King’s” position below the Subjects. 😂😂 Should be “raining” over all.
I hope its ok, now? Mat had his gall bladder removed via keyhole surgery. He has 4 holes, so I guess they lost the key! he's on the mend but says things don’t taste right.
Yes, thank you, I've not had any issues since it was done although I've been advised it may need doing again at some point in the future - that's the benefit of gall bladder removal as stones can't form there.
