What Do You Recommend For Parkinson?
Question: Hi, I am a Parkinson’s warrior since 2010. I seem to recently have had a second occurrence of symptoms of reactive hypoglycemia - especially after a small carb meal. Frought with anxiety, glucose at 101 right afterwards. Like a post meal anxiety.. (I also suspect execrine pancreatic insufficiency- now using enzymes after a meal and low stomach acid within the past month) recent abdominal ultrasound revealed gall bladder sludge. Now Using bike salts and TUDCA. Big appetite. Not much if any reflux/geartburn to speak of.. What do you recommend my next step?
Brief Answer:
Laproscopic cholecystectomy
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Have seen your details and I appreciate your concerns,
See gall bladder sludge is a dangerous thing.
This gall bladder drains juices into a pipe called bike duct this further join with liver and form common bile duct which drains into duodenum...Now just below this is the point where pancreatic duct arises.
Now if by mistake sludge enters into pancreas, it would cause a life threatening thing called pancreatitis.
So you should contact a laproscopic surgeon and should get your gall bladder removed through laproscopy.
It's a day care procedure.
You would be discharged the next day and with in a week you would be normal.
Thank you!
