possible gallbladder symptoms ? Posted: 05-14-08 14:21pm
I get a pain in my belly button that
migrates to my groin area. It feels like a
string is attached to both ends and is
pulling on it. It only last for a few
mins. I have have pain in my shoulders
that worsens when I breath in. I have
gained weight. I feel bloated and extremly
full after I eat. I have had thyroid
check, hormones checked. All normal. Could
this be my gallbladder? Has anyone with
galllbladder problems ever had these
symptoms?? I have a family memeber that
had her gallbladder removed. She described
the same symptoms I am having.

It's hard to determine what it is without
a series of tests to rule out what it
isn't. Gallbladder symptoms can include
what you describe, so, it is possible. An
ultrasound will check for presence of
gallstones which can tell you if something
is or might get blocked up in the future.
A HIDA Scan will test the efficiency of
your gallbladder and how well it fills /
emptys.
