Could this be related to my liver cyst?  my GP thinks not and that it is more due to acid reflux which i suffer from anyway.  I have been investigated for this liver cyst and have had scans, blood tests etc and i recently had another scan to monitor the cyst which i am waiting to hear about.  My pancreas, gall bladder showed up as all OK from the original ultrasound scan.  I just don't know why i get this discomfort and what is causing it.

    From one of my previous posts:

    I'm am no doctor by any means...I can only share my own experience. My system is VERY sensitive to all medications. I had surgery on my leg and knee and the anesthesia and meds sent my system into a tailspin - I was soooo sick for almost 7 weeks. I went for tests and had to clean my system - started feeling better with that. Started taking probiotics and felt improvement every day. I am now 9 weeks post op, and although I still cannot put any pressure on my leg, my stomach/digestive issues are so much better. I take a mixture of 1 tablespoon each of (all of which need to stay refrigerated):

    Acidophilus (live good bacteria); aloe Vera juice, and pure lemon juice. I also go to acupuncture every week.

    Try eating bland foods and chew it very well so it is easier for your system to digest. When you have diarrhea, I used liquid Imodium (I am in the U.S.). Liquid allows me to control my dosage. For gas (belching) I took liquid Gaviscon. If you don't know what these products are, google them for an alternative that is available to you.

    I pray for your recovery

    Have you had any scans checking your gallbladder?

      No I have not. I am doing so much better than I was. I am now for focusing on healing my leg and getting my exercises done. If the abdominal issues arise again, I will get that checked. Thank you for the question though - you never know what will pop up next
