Brief Answer:
Apparently Normal Report.....

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for writing in

Your reports are apparently normal

A well distended gall bladder is normal, what is more concerning is the excretion of bile

A normal ejection fraction can be evaluated with a HIDA scan

Just reassure yourself

Hope this helps
Do write back in case of concern

Hi Thanks for writing in

I would suggest you wait if you have no other symptoms

For constipation you need to take plenty of fluids, fibers and may be Psyllumhusk two spoonfuls with glass of water at bed time

Hope this helps
