I just got my results back from an ultrasound of my liver and gallbladder and the reports state:

Enlarged Liver my measurements are 16.5 X 23.0 X 17.6 and sludge in my gallbladder.

What does this mean if anything. I have pain under my right rib cage for a year and horrible digestive issue; could this be the cause of the pain and digestive problems (I do eat vegetables).

Have u had a barium xray or endoscopy? To look at esophagus..etc. ?

Yes

Hi , I have had 2 years of digestive problems, intolerance to any fat, nausea, gas, diarrhea and bloating. I had a Hida scan for my gallbladder and showed biliary dyskinesia. Treatment is gallbladder removal. I had colonoscopy, endoscopy and those were normal. You may need more tests.

Thank you

May want to get gallbladder removed before u get gallstones plus u don't want gallbladder to effect pancreas. I had my removed due to pain and cholesterol in gallbladder that could of caused gallbladder to bust.

I would suggest gallbladder removal, before pancreatitis sets in, from gallstones! I ended up with a severe case of pancreatitis, along with liver involvement, that started to go septic, and ended up with my being in ICU, with two operations, and spending nearly two weeks in hospital! It was a nightmare! Seven years later, even though I lost 75 pounds, and follow a Mediterranean diet, I have fatty liver disease!

I had my gallbladder removed after intense pain when eating. This is what the doctor found inside… sludge, no gall stones.
Yes, sludge is just as bad as the stones!
