Suspected Gallstones - HELP!

Posted , 7 users are following.

Hi everyone! Over the last 3 month I have been getting a severe pain in my upper right stomach under my ribs which was so intense it caused nausea, vomiting and light/loose stools ?? thought it was just a tummy bug or something but in the end I went to the doctors 2 weeks ago realising that there was something not right! He said he suspects it could be Gallstones and sent a request through for a scan! Since then I’ve had to go back for some stronger pain relief! However, this last week or so I’ve started with continuous back ache which is starting to get me down a bit now, this along with the stomach pain is horrible!

I’m also thinking that a pain in the Centre under my ribs, which I thought I was having an heart attack at the time with is also related to this - but was passed as indigestion! 

Just wondering if people know roughly the waiting time for scans - need a diagnosis and this pain is just getting exhausting!
