Op on wednesday and feeling pretty scared

I deferred my op till after the year, just wasn't mind ready for it.

Hi sry havent been back on had some oc issues I had my op as planned turned out my gall bladder was compacted with stones have a whole pot of them looks like half a tin of sweetcorn :shock:

Have had some issues since the op a few phantom gb attacks that wernt half as painful as the ones i had with the gb and also some sickness esp early mornings just feeling totally wiped out still but i have fibromylgia also so i dnt think it helps i get a stitch type pain also under the right ribcage where the alien gb used to be but it goes after a few days just a bit sharp when i breath when i get it dr thinks it may be due to my fibro or i might have pcs dont know yet xxx

Good to hear you are OK, I hope as your healing continues the sharpness in your twinges will recede

I have asked my surgeons receptionist to book me in again to speak with the surgeon prior to going under the knife as I really would like to tell him about my current symptoms and also he may want to arrange some xrays or hopefully arrange an MRI, as all I have had is an ultrasound in April last year and a CT scan which was particularly looking for any abnormalities of the pancreas, that CT scan came back negative thankfully, but unsure whether it will have shown any relation to stones anywhere in ducts etc?

My current symptoms are mostly ache at the right shoulder blade region back area, I often have a pain that drifts over to the left back area and down the arm.

I find lying flat or on either side will ease any symptom, I would have thought that telling them all this would help find out the actual cause, but I presume they want to remove the GB to eliminate that from the list of potential causes of pain.
