Gallbladder Drama

Well...It's gallbladder trouble time again.  We thought in December that my tubal pregnancy was the cause of the pain that I was having and disregarded the gallbladder scenario...We were wrong.  I had the surgery for the tubal pregnancy in December and hadn't had anymore pain since.

I started having pains the week of Memorial Day, but we had a beach trip planned so we went and I made an appointment with the doctor for the following Tuesday.  I am SO glad I went.  I had to have a HIDA scan done this past Friday morning at 7:45...NOT fun.  The pain was pretty intense and was worse than the procedure (HSG) that I had to have done in February.  However, it wasn't unbearable and I was lucky to have my hubby there to distract me with Real Housewives information! :) 

Here are some pics from the procedure that P. snapped with his IPhone...not the best quality but you get the gist.  The worst part for me was the IV in my arm...I'm not a fan of needles and just knowing it's in my arm for two+ hours freaked me out...Plus just having to lay there on your back!

We find out the results next week, and hopefully it's functioning okay and surgery doesn't have to be done.  Praying for a good outcome...

This was right after she had put in the first IV...this one wasn't that bad...it just took a long time (an hour!).

This part was awful...I had to get a cold wet rag because the injection of this dye was making me nauseated.  NOT fun when having to lie still on your back :(  However, my nurse was SUPER sweet...

This has been my diet this week...an unexpected weigh loss!

And this has been my drink of choice besides water...I feel like I'm in pre-school again! Ha!

And just a sweet Prissy pug photo...She's been so sweet this week.  I think she senses I don't feel good.

XO-T.
