Guest guest Posted April 26, 2003 Report Share Posted April 26, 2003 Hello everyone, I saw the doctor in Atlanta on Thursday to evaluate the right upper quadrant pain that I have been experiencing for several weeks now. After all the testings , poking and prodding have been done, the second surgeon is of the opinion that I need to have surgery to take down adhesions that are pulling and tugging on my liver, which is causing the right upper quadrant pain. He also feels that an operative cholangiogram would be in order due to my elevated liver enzymes and bilirubin levels. I dont know if I will be going back to this surgeon in Atlanta to have this surgery.. he felt that it could be done lap, but it would be a long and tedious surgery due to my many previous surgeries, or if the local surgeon can do this surgery. I have an appt with the local surgeon for Monday afternoon, and will be better able to let you guys know what is going to happen. Thanks for all the support and emails .
