Ultrasound Diagnosis Changing on Gall Bladder

[Guest guest]

Hi all, I'm having some changing diagnosis on ultrasounds of my gall

bladder. 5 years ago I was diagnosed (via ultrasound) with a 2mm

polyp on mygallbladder. A half year later I started to have upper

right quadrant pain and shortly after that began to become

physically sick when eating moderate or large amounts of fat. The

pain increased and I was given a second ultrasound which showed the

then polyp be a 5mm stone. Doctors told me to leave it alone and

live with it. I did so but then last December I became extremely ill

with a complete fat intollerance, intense upper right abdominal pain

which radiated around to the left side. In February I had another

ab ultrasound and the diagnosis was a 4.5mm cyst, not a stone.

Nothing was done about my symptoms and the gall bladder is still its

proper place howevere still feeling ill I had another ultrasound

done last month by another doctor which diagnosed a very small polyp

on my gall bladder. What gives? Has anyone ever heard of a

changing diagnosis like this? Is there anything that can resemble

a " something " on or in the gallbladder? By the way I had a CTScan

which didn't show anything on the gallbladder. Would a CTScan show

a stone or cyst? Thanks in advance for your oppinions!

Ted,

Sounds to me like you may want to get to an abdominal

specialist who can actually READ an ultrasound pic and

give you a definitive answer.

Being jerked around the way you have been so far is

absolutely unacceptable.
