They checked for the gallbladder it was ok. blood work was ok. Still getting sick on stomach nauseous and diarrhea up three times a day, what else could it be
Hi. Thanks for your query. Noted your history of total knee surgery on June 30, 2014 and heart ablation on June 30, 2014. Now there is sick stomach, nausea, diarrhea and visited ER on July 8 and 18, gall bladder being normal, there is still no relief. This indicates that you may be suffering from Gastroenteritis. I would advise the following: Get the stool tested and if infection is present insist for proper antibiotic, metronidazole, probiotic, PPI like Omeprazole and Domperidone for nausea. You will be fine.
