Hi ladies,
I just posted this in 2nd tri, but as it's not that common, I thought I'd try and get as much info/advice as possible.
I've been having a damn gall stone attack since 10pm last night (I didn't know pain like this existed) I've spoken to an on call doctor who advised that at the moment (as it's slowly easing) there's nothing he can do.
I've got an ultrasound on Tuesday to check for them (but I'm 100% sure it's gallstones) the on call doc said it definately sounded like it.
Anyway....he advised that after my ultrasound depending on the outcome, I may have to decide whether to have my gall bladder removed, he said it's rare, but still safe in pregnancy.
Has anyone else had this done?
Or if you've had gallstones in the past, any clue on immediate remedies for my abdominal pain?? It's excruciating and I don't know if I can do anything to relieve the pain.
Thanks
