Is Gallbladder Removal the Answer?
Posted: 04-21-06 22:53pm

Hello,
i am a 34 year old female, I have been experiencing occasional extreme pain in my right side under my ribs sometimes with heart attack like symptoms for a few years now. I have been diagnosed with a hiatal hernia, acid reflux, early hypertension, and after many tests finally had a hyda scan which showed an ejection factor of only 8%

my doctor suggests having my gallbladder removed even though I have no stones. Although I could not get a straight answer as to why my gallbladder is not functioning properly.

Any advice or information would be very greatly appreciated :?:
