Well it's good to hear from you ... sorry no answers, that's frustrating - hope the pain pills will hold you over.

CMarie! There you are! I'm sorry it's not kidney stones. I had the gall bladder surgery, it totally relieved the pain which was the worst ever.
I really should star a thread on this. No one tells you when you lose weight rapidly (more than 20% in less than 6 months) the odds of having gall bladder complications are HUGE. Almost every Gastric Bypass patient loses their gall bladder, anyone that loses more than about 30 pounds has a huge chance of it as well.
When I lost that 110 pounds, my gall bladder was completely destroyed. Your body is used to creating so much bile to break down all the fat you've eaten all along and when you go on a strict reduction in diet your body doesn't realize to stop so much bile production and then it dries out in your gall bladder and crystalizes and causes major pain.
One of the surest ways to see if its your gall stones is to not eat dairy and to eat less than 8 grams of fat per sitting for a day or two. I had to do that between being diagnosed and having the surgery. Try it and if the pain goes away, odds are it's gall stones!
Good luck!

Sorry I missed this! I have been in bed for about 24 hours straight! Thank you all for your concern! I had the test done yesterday and they were unable to detect any kidney stones. WEIRD! I still have the same pain, so it isn't like I already passed them. They sent me for an ultrasound and they detected that I have polyps on my gallbladder. My doctor isn't sure if this is what is causing the pain or not. He also said it could be that I have an infection from my IUD. I have had it for almost 2 years so that seems a little hard to believe. I am still waiting to see what they want me to do now. If removing my gallbladder will give me relief, then they need to go on and cut it out now!
I have stronger pain meds (Mephragan) and they help alot more than the Lortabs. I am just passing each hour one at a time waiting to hear something from my doctor! I promise to keep you posted!
I don't know how I missed her post. But, hope your back and feeling better soon Cmarie. I don't know about kidney stones. But, I had galbladder surgery because of so many galstones and it doubled me over, so I can only imagine how you must be feeling. Get better soon.
It's like 6 hours later, and I'm still bumping ...
and I will continue to do so until CMarie shows up or Christ comes back, which ever is 1st.
