Can Duodenitis Cause Billary Dyskenesia, Meaning Can It Be The

Advice is as per protocol.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for choosing 'Ask A Doctor" service for your query,
Have seen your details and I appreciate your concerns,
Duodenitis as a cause of biliary dyskinesia is overdiagnosis and something which can be heard only on Google (usually misdiagnosed cases) and not in standard books but in your case HIDA scan is showing biliary dyskinesia.
Right upper quadrant pain presentation.
Two differential diagnosis-
a) Problem with gall bladder-You have.
b) Gastritis -you have mild (never given any antacid tablet).
Your doctor's suggestion is as per protocol. Maybe both events are not related to each other but if HIDA is positive gall bladder may be a reason for pain.
In fact, right upper quadrant pain has two common reasons as stated above( Don't read on Google it would show you 100 more reasons which are rare of rare case scenario) and rule of medical science is rare things occurs very rarely so first consider and treat common things.
But I would suggest you wait till biopsy reports and start an antacid tablet-like Omeprazole 20 mg once daily for gastritis(Over the counter).
If biopsy reports turn up to be normal and Omeprazole does not help (Pain in Gastritis responds to antacid immediately) then gall bladder should be operated out.
Hope I was helpful,
Follow-ups are welcome,
Thank you
