Diabetic, Have Rare Form Of Spina Biffida, Pinched Nerve In Hip. Abdominal Pain, Sonogram Scheduled. Pain Relief?
I'm 65 years old with type 2 diabetes, and a long history of health problems beginning with a rare form of spina biffida. I have an Indiana urinary continent diversion, and am suffering from a pinched nerve in my left hip. But that's not my problem. About 2 weeks ago I started having a weird pain in my right upper abdomen. I am scheduled for a sonogram to check my gaul bladder on Nov. 4th. Is there any thing I can do to reduce the pain until then?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
If a gall bladder problem like stones or sludge is suspected you may have to do the following:
1. Avoid fast and oils in foods.
2. Avoid chicken and meat in your meals.
3. Drink plenty of fresh fruit juices and include foods in your diet.
4. Do not fast or skip meals.
5. Avoid milk or milk products like cheese.
6. Have boiled vegetables and soups.
7. Eat small and frequent meals.
Hope this helps
