[|Human|] 2 years ago I had an ultra sound that found gallbladder sludge . I then had a HIDA Scan done and it said that my gallbladder was functioning at 27%. I decided to try alternative treatments before surgery (Chinese medicine, supplements, etc). I had planned on having it removed in 2 weeks but decided to repeat the HIDA scan since it had been 2 years. My gallbladder is now functioning at 85%, which I understand is hyperactive. Do you have any insight as to why the rate increased substantially and if I should continue with the surgery?
[|AI|]  Hi jessicagregg, It seems you have had very different results on the HIDE scan test, but you have to understand that this test is not a perfect test, and results may vary. To do surgery just based on these results, you would need to have a function (or ejection fraction) of the gallbladder below 35% AFTER the injection of cholecystokinin. The most important factor to consider before getting surgery is your symptoms. If you have typical gallbladder symptoms such as right upper qua Chat Doctor.
