Hi:
I was a healthy 29 year old caucasian male. Approx. 2 years ago i started having major stomach problems. My symptoms included heavy nausea all day, stomach pain/bloating after eating anything for the following hours, extreme acid reflux in the morning and extreme nausea mid afternoon. I saw 5 dif gastro drs. I did every test possible. All came back negative. One diagnosed me with IBS, another said NO, another said GERD, another said NO. No one could figure out why i had my problems.
Prior tests done: Cat scan with enterography(nothing), lactose breath test(positive), colonscopy, egt, capsule study, catscan.
Anyways, i just saw a new dr and he suggested i do a HIDA Scan with CCK. The results came in with my ejection fraction rate of 14% (norm is 35% obviously). Ive had the test results reviewed by 3 other drs who confirm.
Do i take my gallbladder out asap? Ive become used to my problems. Ive been taking clonazapam for past year (.5 mg before bed) which has helped. I avoid all fiber foods, heavy fatty foods, fried foods, dairy etc. But, i used to eat all of this before the probs started.
Why didnt this test get done 2 years ago? Will it make all my probs go away? I dont have much back pain or upper right quadrant pain...but nausea, bloating, pain after eating - YES!
Thank you for your time-
