ROSE F IS THE PAIN ALWAYS ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE? JUST CURIOUS. 8/24/2009
Kerri I am wondering if I am having problems with my gall bladder, as of aprox. 8-9 months ago I started have severe constipation problems, my doctor has put me on 2 prescription strength stool softners, they did not work, my stomach is very bloated all the time, I can go up to 2 and 3 weeks without having a bowel movement, I have what I thought was water retention but after being given a prescrition water pill and getting no relief from it I was worried as I can use my finger and push inward on places of my lower leg and my ankles
and the indent will stay for a min. or so, my feet also get very swollen and the medication for a water pill does nothing, I have terrible pain in my back and just under my breast area, it becomes hard and painful, could this be a problem with my gall bladder? Also I go into the bathroom to urinate and it wont just come out, I have to push, and push more out, and I used to not have to go so bad in the middle of the night or first thing when I wake up, there was one time I was so bloated I looked like I was 9 months preg, so I went to the hospital feeling like I was going to pop, they did a MRI, came back into my room and told me I was extremely constipated, they also sent me home with something to help with that, it did not help at all, I have been double and triple doseing my stool softners and nothing wrks. what is going on? should I get checked for gall bladder stones or infections?

TM To be able to coin the term "intelligent life on the web", one would think an article would be proofread for spelling, punctuation and gramatical errors. A "lever" is a simple tool, not an organ. 8/22/2009

LOUISE besides all of the above, I'm experiencing very swollen stomach and from being so cold all of the suddening I'm dripping wet from perspiration all throughout my body. Last night I had a very sleeplesly night, I was very unconfortable all night. I told my husband that I should go to the hospital and have myself checked out, but he's a little reluctant, he wants me to wait, it could be something that will go away. What do you think. 6/26/2009
Brendon well i think it needs to go into MORE DETAIL! 6/1/2009
DH Very helpful. 5/31/2009
Mary Number 8 and 9 listed under "Gallbladder problems" mention issues with the "lever". Do you folks mean liver?
Number 8 listed under "Gallbladder Symptons" does not make sense! What does breathing deep have to do with dealing with the disease?
This is the very first time I have looked up a medical condition on the internet. I am very disappointed with the lack of quality in the proofreading of the information given.

teresa When i found spelling errors and other grammatical mistakes, I quit reading.

"to absorb inorganic salts and water from the bile, which becomes multiply, concentrated than it was when in liver."
"Often leading to serious lever problems. " "When lever is traumatized," "if there is constant sever pain "

Monica Informative but the english is terrible. The article needs to be edited and then proof read. 2/3/2009
Dr.Pimbertill Everyone is talking about "MRI" and "XRAY" and all that.
If you are having the pain/vomiting & so on,then maybe you should go to "HIDASCAN". Now,If the pain is lower,Appendicitis could be in the picture. If the pain is occuring upper,I'd concider a diseased GallBladder. Talk to your doctors. Im too new at this.
1/26/2009
michelle someone help! im so confused. im hurting around my right side above my bellybutton. i can't stop throwing up. im beginning to think it's my gallbladder. what do you all think? 1/26/2009
gina Just because the MRI's come back okay & bloodwork doesn't mean nothing is wrong. You need to talk to your doctors about a heidascan.
or however you spell it. Because when I was having problems all my xray's and everything came back great untill I got my heidascan.
1/26/2009
tlr Im 12 and had to have mine removed. I got pains on the right side above my bellybutton. At first they thought it was appendicitis but that was okay so they did bloodwork and it was okay but then my doctor schedualed a heidascan and my gallbladder was only functuning 20 percent so they took it out & i threw up before I got it out and after.
So if you get yours out,Don't be surprised if the vomiting still is occuring.

Annette Marszal This article was very helpful and was just what I was looking for. 12/27/2008
Dick Fehseke This could have been an informative article but for the misspellings and atrocious grammar. If you expect people to place any credence whatsoever in your publications, your editing staff needs to be replaced! 12/10/2008

Jennifer Vogel This is a very informative and helpful article. I would like to suggest the correction of spelling and use of the English language, to make it easier to read and understand for English-speaking readers. 8/26/2008
Leslie I am very appreciative of any factual information I can find on the internet because I am in between jobs right now and don't have insurance! I am a 37yr old petite female and have been perfectly healthy my entire life but was diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome almost a year ago. However, my symptoms have increased "dramatically" to the point where no matter what or how much I eat -I experience extreme indigestion, gas, bloating, dizziness, occasional blurred vision, (and my right eye began watering the other day for no reason). I also just recently started having occasionally nausea. In addition, I find myself having to get up in the middle of the night and urinate which is very unusual for me. My "C" doctor said it may be my gallbladder or endometriosis and suggested I have blood work done. I am concerned it may be some form of cancer(stomach or colon) but I can not afford to have an intensive procedure done right now and don't know if I need to go to the Emergency Room. I am scared and know something is not right. 8/16/2008
CJ Jones My husband shared he believes my gallbladder might be the cause of the intense pain I've been having. After reading this webpage, I think he's right.

My doctor says if it was my gallbladder, I would have jumped off of the table when she pressed on my gallbladder. I have had my blood tested and I'll see a new doctor in a few days, as she has left the VA.

What types of questions should I be asking? Can the doctor tell from bloodwork? How do they know it's the gallbladder that's causing this pain?

Thank you for your site.

Diana Great article. Very informative & helpful! 7/2/2008
kathy Good information but need to spellcheck. Liver is spelled incorrect in several places 5/20/2008
matt you need to learn how to spell, or at the very least, not rely solely on spellcheck because it will not catch when you write "lever" instead of liver. 3/16/2008

Susan This information was very helpful. I thought I had developed a milk allergy, (as my children are allergic to milk), because I have stomach pain when I eat cream sauces and cheese. A friend suggested that it might be my gallbladder. This never even occurred to me. After reading this article, I have more symptoms and I think I should talk about this with my doctor. Thank you. 1/15/2008

live private Hallo! Es hat sich doch gezeigt, dass die 301 Umleitung einer minus-31 Domain nichts bringt weil die Seite auf die umgeleitet wird auch auf Platz 31 landet. Wenn nun jemand seine -31 Domain auf meine Domain umleiten wurde um mich als Konkurrenten zu argern, gabe es fur mich keine Moglichkeit diese Manipulation herauszufinden. Ich wurde ratseln was ich falsch gemacht hatte und dabei ist es nur ein Trick der Konkurrenz. Edit: Ich habe die Frage vergessen! Gibt es doch eine Moglichkeit herauszufinden ob jemand seine Domain auf meine umgeleitet hat? 1/9/2008
