Well, I just turned 17 on jan 20.. And I
didn't want to go to school.. And I had
to have a legal document to miss anymore
school.. So I had the bright idea of
going to the doctor, over my stomach,
because I had been having pain for a while
now. I figured that we'd go in, and
they'd say something, and we'd come
straight back out. And then I could go
and have my nails done all in one day..
Well, it didn't quite work that way.. We
went in and I didn't get to see my regular
doctor because she was out on medical
leave.. And the doctor thought that I
had ulcers. So we did lab tests; the
tests came back positive that I have the
bacteria in my bloodstream that can cause
ulcers. So they put me on medicine for
two weeks. I had to take six pills in the
morning, and six pills in the evening.
Now supposably, the pills aren't that
great for other things. They help that
but cause alot of problems, not something
I need. But I lived with it. Anyhow,
that didn't help.. After that, I went
back to my normal doctor and she had no
idea what the other doctor was talking
about. She thought that it sounded like
something was wrong with my gall bladder.
So, we did the ultra sound. It turned up
'normal'.. But when she pressed down on
the middle of my stomach and on the right
side, it hurt really bad. It was sharp
pains.. Just like after I eat anything,
or late at night.. Since that was
'normal' the only other things they can do
is run a scope, which they are setting me
up for.. And do another test. I'm not
sure what it is. But, I do know that
there was two.. My doctor still thinks
that it is my gall bladder... What do you
all think?
Thanks

I see its been awhile since ur post. How
did things turn out? It could indeed be
your gallbladder. Those are symptoms.

Yeah, it has been a while. The results
didn't show anything. It was 'normal' as
were the past tests. So, we did a ct scan
two friday's ago. I'm not sure how that
turned out. Then, next, that following
tuesday, I went to the hospital to have a
test run. It was a hida(i think that's
right..) scan. Again, i'm not so sure how
that turned out. I have to wait for my
doctor to come back into the office before
we can go to see her to figure it out.
This sounds bad, but hopefully it will
show something. I don't want anything to
be wrong with me, but I want to know what
is wrong with me. I want to be able to
find a way to fix it.
