Guest guest Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Hi, What make u think its your GB that's hurting? Colic pain etc could be due to a lot of reasons.. pindumc <pindumcfly@...> wrote: Hi, I just got my ultrasound done, and the doc said i had absolutely no stones or inflammation. I asked him why was my gallbladder hurting so much and he said probably due to acidity etc, and gave me some antacids and pain killer prescription. I dont intend to take those medicines. Is there any other reason my gallbladder hurts so much? Does anyone have any suggestions? thanks, Pindu --------------------------------- Talk is cheap. Use Messenger to make PC-to-Phone calls.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 I would get my acid level checked. They are PH strips that you test by a urine sample. You can change the acidity by diet. Good for you, the pain medication will ONLY AGGRAVATE the inflamation and any medications like pain pills etc., are known to turn your body acid. Doctor's are not informed about alkaline/acid. There is a place on the internet, actually several where you can pull up the foods that make your system less acid. > > Hi, > > I just got my ultrasound done, and the doc said i had absolutely no > stones or inflammation.

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Shefy I got some in the mail for free from some nutrition place when I bought supplements. I think you can get them even at walgreens. I have never seen it limited to a 6 though? They include a color chart and shows where your at for acid/alkaline. I had fun with them too and discovered that Ice Mountain water is pretty good, I also put it in my moms " purification " water and it was horrible. Very acid. I never felt better after changing my diet, I was shoving donuts and had candy in my house at ALL times. I honestly didn't crave it and that is a miracle coming from me. I saw too a few days ago, all over the media that the antacids pindumc's doctor prescribed actually CAUSE acid. You have to be so careful. Antibiotics are also really bad. Cause your system to turn acid too. Good luck with the test strips. I would just do a search for PH test strips or check at a local store. > > > > Hi, > > > > I just got my ultrasound done, and the doc said i had absolutely no > > stones or inflammation.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Best bet is to get a CT scan and figure out what is going on here-- might be another organ?? > > Hi, > What make u think its your GB that's hurting?

Get a better doctor, someone needs to look into what is the cause of your pain. Many things can cause these symptoms, even hepatitis. http://www.dekalbsurgical.com/gallstones_and_gallbladder.html " Less invasive imaging techniques are being investigated for diagnosing common bile duct stones. Ultrasound, which is accurate in diagnosing stones in the gallbladder, is not as sensitive for showing if there are stones in the common bile duct. Studies are reporting that special magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques, which are not invasive, are almost as accurate as ERCP and cholangiography in identifying normal and abnormal ducts. The test is similar to the more familiar CT scan, but the procedure is not widely available and may not detect very small stones. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
