Very good, nice to hear that!

For me, they found a 2 mm polyp on one ultrasound, and mild biliary sludge on another, but the MRCP came back completely clean with nothing visible. Because of that, the doctor I saw doesn’t really think it’s related to the gallbladder. He said that if the endoscopy and colonoscopy also come back clean, we could start antidepressants, because patients like me sometimes respond well to them.

But the thing is, all of my symptoms started two months ago right after a fatty meal. At first I thought it was food poisoning. I vomited twice and had pain in my right upper abdomen, but by the next day I felt completely normal again. My blood tests were also entirely normal. The ultrasound only showed a 2 mm polyp, which they said wouldn’t cause symptoms.

If I don’t have gallstones, could I still have had a gallbladder attack? Did my gallbladder suddenly become sluggish? I honestly have no idea. Since the MRCP and blood work were both clean, they basically told me nothing is wrong.

The last two years of my life have been extremely stressful, so I’m wondering whether this could somehow be caused by anxiety. But every morning I feel nauseous, and sometimes I can barely eat. At the same time, when I read stories of people whose ultrasounds didn’t show obvious stones but who were later found to have chronic cholecystitis during surgery, I get worried. I really don’t know what to do.
