Guest guest Posted December 17, 2002 Report Share Posted December 17, 2002 Hi there. Yes I still do have my gallbladder and have had an ultrasound about a year and a half ago which showed it to be normal but that is just when my problems were just beginning. Do the two have a correlation together? Just finishing an attack I had this afternoon that had me wiped out for awhile. Still think it is pancreatitis and not IBS although the second would be better but I just don't believe in IBS at all!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 18, 2002 Report Share Posted December 18, 2002 Biker Blue, yes gallstones and other gallbladder problems can cause pancreatitis. Most of us usually have it removed at some point. Sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't. Doctors don't know why that happens, but they do know that it can occasionally be the problem, so if they don't know what is causing your pancreatitis, they usually have the gallbladder removed.
