Guest guest Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 regarding the gallbladder; most with cf sooner or later have the little darling removed, though the ultrasound and cat scan should reveal whether that is the problem. Good luck and do keep us " posted " on how he is doing and what is planned. Love, n Rojas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 , We never got the chance to have any problems. When they did surgery on Hannah for a bile duct/pancrease issue they went ahead and removed her gallbladder (she was 1 1/2 then) The surgeons said that they tend to cause a lot of problems in kids with CF..gallstones were what they told us about!!
