There's really nothing else other than surgery, I had my gallbladder removed it's a simple surgery and believe you me it is totally worth it, no more gallbladder attacks.

I had an extreme amount of gall stones & after a year of horrible pain, ended up having my gall bladder removed.  \n\nIf your case is not as severe as mine, the main treatment is a change in diet.  If certain foods trigger pain, avoid them.  Try to eat healthy foods, not spicy, and not fried.  Dairy and foods with excess fats can also trigger more pain.  \n\nI'd suggest talking with your doctor and asking for alternative ways to heal.  Also, if you have any herbalists in your town, they might be able to advise some herbs or supplements to try.\n\nGood luck!

Being a veteran of around 10 kidney stones, the only suggestion I have is to drink alot of fluids, mostly clear fluids. 10mm is a very large stone and may not pass through the uretha tube.  Go to a urologist and have him do some more x-rays. Perhaps the whirlpool bath is what you need. The vibrations will break up the stone and make them more readily passable. It is a surgical procedeure that I had to  go through once.

This is a relatively simple and safe surgery. I had my gall bladder removed a few years ago. You may want to ask your doctor about special diet considerations after the surgery as sometimes the fat in my body doesnt metabolize since the surgery. This varies from person to person. All will be well with your mom =) Its a very simple procedure and I was back to work the next day.

You're in for some severe pain if you don't have those taken care of. I ignored my gallbladder. The pain got so bad I'm not sure I can describe it to you. It was a big knot about the size of my fist under my sternum. Unimaginable pain. It didn't matter what I did I couldn't relieve it. Pushing on it did nothing. Sitting in every possible position I could do nothing. It would last for a good hour non-stop torture. This happened daily. I'm one stubborn man. The pain would be so bad I would be screaming. Still I didn't ask for help. I was hoping one of the neighbors would call for help. They never did. I lasted 10 days. I finally said something and saw a doc. They tried to do the surgery through those scopes. No luck. I'd waited so long that the gall bladder was gangrenous. So they had to go in. That's not a pretty scar. I went into the hospital expecting to stay 5 hours. That turned into 6 days. So if the doc's are suggesting to you that you have the surgery, I'm thinking maybe you should. 4 tiny scars compared to my 7 inch long scar plus the 4 tiny scars. The bill will be much smaller as well. Cost me 15 grand for being stubborn. Good luck! \n.

my grandma used to use cod liver oil for gall bladder issues, not to lose weight. I'd drink lots of water, eat fruits, veggies, whole grain, low fat cereal and milk and walk, walk, walk.  Good Luck, you can do it!

performed to treat cholelithiasis and cholecystitis.. it is the surgical removal of the gallbladder. under general anaesthesia the gall bladder is excised and the cyst duct litigated, the common duct is explored, and any stones found are removed. when possible is done as a laparoscopic procedure.. research this on the web for more information

I also had gallbladder surgery.The surgeon said the reason i had such a large cut was because they had to make sure there were no gallstones trapped between where the gallbladder was & down toward my stomach.They found no trapped stones but the surgeon said it happens.If your surgeon didn't explore for furthur stones you should talk to your doctor.They can find any stones that were left,if that is the case.Wish i could help more.Hope it turns out ok.I remember how bad the attacks hurt!!

What tests did you have?  I got gallstones after my son was born, it was horrible!  Worse than any part of labor!!  When I went to the hospital and they suspected gallstones, they set me up for a sonogram the next day!  Once the sonogram confirmed it, percocets were my best-friend until I could get into surgery.  They made the pain disappear within 20 minutes!!

Take this from someone who's been there.  Get that gallbladder taken OUT.  Now!!!  Your pain will not go away.  The attacks will start to happen more frequently and last longer.  Get it taken out ASAP, they will probably be able to do this laparascopically.  Piece of cake.

It depends on the size and amount of stones that you have.As far as alternative treatment is considered,stay away from so called "gall bladder flushes",trying to flush out stones yourself is a serious no no,because their is a chance a stone can get lodged in the bile duct,and in that case it would require emergency surgery.Most of the time gallstones remain inactive and there is no potential risks other then the  occassional discomfort after fatty meals.Most gastrointologist reccomend having the entire gallbladder removed,if the stones are very large or it continues to be bothersome.Stones can push against the liver leading to several serious conditions.This is why proper evaluation and treatment from a well trained gastrointologist is an absolute must!What are the complications of gallstones? \n\nBiliary colic is the most common symptom of gallstones, but, fortunately, it is a self-limiting symptom. There are, however, more serious complications of gallstones. \n\nCholecystitis. Cholecystitis is an inflammatory condition of the gallbladder. Like biliary colic, it too is caused by sudden obstruction of the ducts by a gallstone, usually the cystic duct. In fact, cholecystitis may begin with an episode of biliary colic. Obstruction of the cystic duct causes the wall of the gallbladder to begin secreting fluid just as with biliary colic, however, for unclear reasons, inflammation sets in. At first the inflammation is sterile, that is, there is no infection with bacteria; however, over time the bile and gallbladder become infected with bacteria that travel through the ducts from the intestine.\n\nWith cholecystitis, there is constant pain in the right upper abdomen. Inflammation extends through the wall of the gallbladder, and the right upper abdomen becomes tender when it is pushed. Unlike with biliary colic, however, it is painful to move. Individuals with cholecystitis usually lie still. There is fever, and the white blood cell count is elevated, both signs of inflammation. Cholecystitis usually is treated with antibiotics, and most episodes will resolve over several days. Even without antibiotics, cholecystitis often resolves. As with biliary colic, movement of the gallstone out of the cystic duct and back into the gallbladder relieves the obstruction and allows the inflammation to resolve.\n\nCholangitis. Cholangitis is a condition in which bile in the common, hepatic, and intrahepatic ducts becomes infected. Like cholecystitis, the infection spreads through the ducts from the intestine after the ducts become obstructed by a gallstone. Patients with cholangitis are very sick with a high fever and elevated white blood cell counts. Cholangitis may result in an abscess within the liver or sepsis. (See discussion of sepsis below.)\n\nGangrene. Gangrene of the gallbladder is a condition in which the inflammation of cholecystitis cuts off the supply of blood to the gallbladder. Without blood, the tissues forming the wall of the gallbladder die, and this makes the wall very weak. The weakness combined with infection often leads to rupture of the gallbladder. The infection then may spread throughout the abdomen, though often the rupture is confined to a small area around the gallbladder (a confined perforation).\n\nJaundice. Jaundice is a condition in which bilirubin accumulates in the body. Bilirubin is brownish-black, yellow when it is not too concentrated. A build-up of bilirubin in the body turns the skin and whites of the eye (sclera) yellow. Jaundice occurs when there is prolonged obstruction of the bile ducts. The obstruction may be due to gallstones, but it also may be due to many other causes of obstruction, for example, tumors of the bile ducts or surrounding tissues. (Other causes of jaundice are a rapid destruction of red blood cells that overwhelms the ability of the liver to remove it from the blood or a damaged liver that cannot remove bilirubin from the blood normally.) Jaundice, by itself, does not cause pr

Try your hardest to save your gallbladder. I would recommend a gallbladder flush and avoid cooked fats. Rather try raw fats such as olive oil, raw cheese, coconut oil and avoid eating cooked fats. Take a digestive enzyme with a lot of lipase in it to digest fat. Vitamin C will also be beneficial. See a good board certified acupuncturist and apply Castor oil packs to the liver gallbladder area every night. If you are female and taking birth control pills (hormones) I would recommend that you find an alternative form of contraception. Always remember that God knew what he was doing when he designed your body. It is a self-healing organism. We should never remove something before fighting with all your might to save it. .....Good luck!

Gallbaladder attacks are caused by allergies to high fat foods, quit drinking anything that has high sugar contents, soda, juice things like that, start drinking lots of water and your diet should probably change, I would eat plain food, like veges with no sauce or garnish, which means no butter too!!! just lightly steam veges for a couple of minutes, but not to long, also you could eat plain boneless skinless chicken breast. Just everything has to be very plain, no wheat, no sugar, basically no carbs, only veges and very lean protien. I had a gallbladder attack and they removed mine and I am only 27, after wards I did research and what I found out was very interesting, change your diet for a couple of weeks and see if that helps. I wish I would have known that, instead I had to lose a body part. I never had heartburn or issues before my attack, it just happened all of a sudden, but if you follow a low fat diet with no sugar you should be alot better in a couple of weeks.\n\nYour stool is weird because your gallbladder is not releasing enough enzymes to break down the fat in your foods, so if you reduce or cut completely your fat intake your gallbladder will be able to catch up( I guess that is how you can word it).\n\nPlease try this before you have gallbladder surgery, I wsih that I would have known about this before I had mine out. \n\nLet me know how it goes,\nLissa7903@yahoo.com\n\nMelissa
