No Pain, fullness, pulling

I am worried that I might have something else other than biliary dykinsia.  I had a Hida scan with a 14% rate. During the test, I was so comfortable I could have slept.  I have no pain and nausea ever. I do have a lot of pulling and it feels like a big lump like a tennis ball in my right quadrant.  I feel very bloated after a big meal; whether it is a healthy  meal or not. I've had GERD in the past but it seems to be fine now.  I eat super healthy, I am a normal weight and active person.  Colonoscopy, edoscopy and ultrasounds are normal.

I keep thinking I must have something else and it scares me.  Should I press my doctor to do a MRI or another test?

Hi, if gallbladder ejection fraction is below 35% it is considered to be gallbladder dyskinesia. With gallbladder dyskinesia, you can have fatty food intolerance and sometimes pain in the right upper quadrant if there is evidence of gallstones or inflammation of the gallbladder. So, this could cause the symptoms described by you. If due to non-functionality of the gallbladder, there is stasis of bile, it could predispose to gallstone formation. Depending on your symptoms your doctor will plan therapy, please discuss with him. Regards.
