Posted on Mon, 27 Apr 2015
Question: I had a HIDA scan today...and I feel really sick from it. I feel like I'm having a gallbladder attack...bad. I've tried Zofran, Maalox, Norco 7.5/325, and Benedryl over the course of the day. It's getting worse. I am not sure what to do. I have had bad nausea and loose stools along with pain.
