I’ve been going back and forth to the hospital with “typical” biliary colic pain. They keep telling me the same thing, your bloods are fine and you have no stones. ( I did end up in hospital with a blockage caused by a stone from being pregnant). So I have had stones in the past just none now. The pain I get now is everyday, I get nausea everyday too. I’m struggling to eat because of the nausea and pain. I’ve now stared having acid reflux and bloating with it all so struggling to eat anything of normal size. I’ve lost about 2 and a half stone in a few months. They have done mrcp, ultrasound and a HIDA test. I’m going today for the results. I’m just wondering if the HIDA test comes back clear is there any other tests they can do? Or is there any questions I need to be asking. They took my bloods a few months ago and they all came back too

ask for a fibro scan of your liver .. liver problems can cause nausea , sickness and pain ..liver disease doesn’t always show up on blood test mine didn’t .. worth checking .. hope u get to the bottom of it

Hi Samantha, I know it sounds weird but fingers crossed they find something on your hida scan so at least you have an answer. I was the same I had all these tests and my bloods were ok but the pain was getting worse, then finally the hida scan came back and my gallbladder wasn't working correctly.
Have they done a CT scan as that may show hidden stones? Also an endoscopy as you may have problems with your stomach and they should do biopsies to check for things like H.pylori which my sister in law had, also they'll check for crohns and diverticulitis? If they haven't done this yet it would be worth them doing.
Let me know how you get on.

I agree with Katherine. Although in my case I never had a single stone, I feel they overlook non stone gallbladder issues A LOT. positive murphys sign was all I had, jaundice, fever, and vomiting. Nothin ever showed on my imaging except my HIDA, but they still would not give me the surgery. However you will want to be sure and have the upper scope, to make sure you don't have ulcers, or other gastric issues. Hopefully though your hida scan will be telling and wishing you the best of luck.
