SquirrellyMama Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Pretty sure I'm having a gallbladder pain. It's been going on for 7 hours almost. I've vomited once. I'd wait to go to my doctor, but I don't know if I can do this for another 5 hours. I hate calling the doctor in the middle of the night.

Jean in Newcastle Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If you have vimited, I would go to the ER. I’m sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Go to the ER. Don't worry about disturbing your doctor--he or she is used to it, and it's part of the job they love to take care of you, the patient! I hope you feel better right quick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El... Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Pain that lasts for 7 hours... And vomiting... Yes, I think you need to be seen. It might be a number of things. If you feel reluctant, could you call a nurse advice line? I bet they will tell you to go in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geodob Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 It's better to go as soon as possible. To hopefully avoid complications, such as inflammation and/or infection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonflower Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 I would go right on off to the ER, and I say this as someone who doesn't carry standard health insurance (so ER is generally self-pay) and who tries everything in the book and on the internet before going to a doctor.

If you need to slow things down and have everything explained, that is understandable. I'm guessing you'll need to be on the antibiotics for a bit before the surgery?

kirag714 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 So glad you went in! This was my sister exactly 10 days ago, and she had surgery within 12 hours of going into the ER. She is doing very well now and was so glad to have the pain disappear. Good luck with your surgery and recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
