Delayed Filling of GB
| Fri, 01-26-2007 - 8:25pm |
Hi,
I am wondering if anyone can help me. I have been having gb problems for quite sometime now. Have had severe episodes where I cannot move for a couple hours, now its just a constant ache. I went to get an ultrasound, it came back normal. Now, today I went for a HIDA scan w/CCK. I was there for 4 hours! It took my gallbladder 3 hours to fill up with the first injection, so they didnt even do the CCK part. They said that I have a delayed gallbladder. Does anyone know what this means? I dont want to wait the whole weekend for my doc to call me. Also, does this mean I will have to take it out? Thanks so much for the help and info!

Welcome Evanagelina!
I wasn't able to find much about delayed gallbladder, but will search more in the morning. Is there any way to reach your Dr. on Saturday, or call to get basic results from the hospital? I always ask for a copy of reports, to keep in my own file.
