I am a 44 year old female that was diagnosis at age 32 with high blood pressure and fast heart rate. Now, I have been diagnosed with GERD, IBS, Watermelon stomach, metabolic syndrome, diverticulosis and a hiatal hernia. The day I had an Endoscopy which two stomach bleeds were cauterized I went to the emergency room for severe pain which lead to a diagnosis of chronic Cholecystitis with gallbladder functioning at 3%. I had my gallbladder removed but the surgeon found no gallstones. I am 2 months post-surgery and I have pressure and pain in the upper right abdomen, nausea, stomach swelling. In that area sometimes it feels as if there is a tight knot. I see the surgeon again and I would like some suggestions on what to ask him.
