OK about 3 weeks ago i started having this really bad pain in my right side so i go to the E.R. where they think its gall bladder stones.From there i get my first Morphine high of the year,i love those things lol but i am scared of them at the same time because you don't want to get addicted. So here it Begin's with the taking of blood shots ex rays more morphine shots woo hoo getting shuffled from one Doctor to the next. My Doc says my bladder another Doc says its my liver there is four Doctors all fighting what it could be, mean while Martin is in pain saying just tell me what the F is wrong with me. Oh sorry more Morphine more ex rays even one called a nuclear ex ray what the F is that lol be careful dammit where you point that thing gsss. I'm getting know were but high as a kite,now there all agreeing its my liver.To day i go back to the E.R. in lots of pain they act as if they have never seen me before and run me out with nothing why? because some thing was wrong with my Insurance card,whats wrong with these people? better yet whats wrong with me.When does the hurting stop and the healing begin? is it all about the money? are they playing on my pain to make a $ what does one do here.Sorry it was so long,thank you for reading.Martin

so sorry to read of this

IDK the answers to your questions, but I have a question. Did they tell u what is wrong with your liver?


please get well soon

convert unto God's ways and He shall heal you - as it is written!

They say they need to do the nuclear ex ray first my luck they will blow the hole freaking place up lol.They also say that i have fat in my liver which can turn to cancer so who knows.

Sky... I am in the medical field. First thing wrong.. you went to the ER. The ER is like a playground for doctors who can't wait to do SOMETHING new. I recommend you find a primary physician... MD. Have him do a full panel of blood work. Then have him give you a referral to a specialist. Don't wait and ding around in a ER. Good luck to you.

Yes i have a primary in there some where lol & i went to a gastroenterology Doctors office who is now my specialist.The only reason i go to the E.R. is when the pain is just to much for me to handle.Its going so slow to many test its driving me crazy lol.

Sky, I am not going to get into the privacy of your medical concerns on here for everyone to read. There are a few things I would be asking though if this were me.
First why they are sending you to a gast. specialist? Unless something is coming out in the labs or films.. I also wonder your symptoms to begin with. If you want to remain private feel free to email me.
Just don't want to pry or tell the world what is going on unless you prefer. I would not worry about addiction to morphine. However, that in itself would concern me. Why are they giving such a strong drug for something they have no clue about yet? They can actually do more damage if the kidneys really are the concern.

I yie yie there going to kill me with there nuclear ex rays and the wrong drugs,if you stop seing me on here you know they did lol.

So sorry to hear all this.Will be praying they get to the bottom of this and you start healing soon!
If you have a fatty liver? I would stay away from coke!My mom had that.
Get well soon!

Thank you so much.Martin

I think your right,they give me pain meds but a lot of time they do nothing and they say you to stay on top of them and take 4 a day.Here again i'm afraid when its all over i will haave a hard time getting of the meds.It happen to me once years ago when i had kiddney stones and it was only one bottle of 40 pills and when they were gone it was worse then having the kiddney stones lol so they scare me a little.

Will take care of that when the time comes is what i get lol,i dont want the time to come is what i'm thinking lol.

Hi. Just wondering why they didn't rule out a hernia. Or a digestive illness. Seeing as you were sent to a gastroenterologist. Sorry if it seems like i'm adding onto the list of X-rays here, but you might also wanna consider getting a Colonoscopy. Just to help rule out any ulcers or tumors. Not saying you definitely have any, just a suggestion as a precaution. I've been quite a one for getting a lot of x-rays in my time, so i can sympathise with how annoying it feels not knowing what's wrong. Get yourself some painkillers. Really strong ones. Try not to stress about it, as that can make the pain worse. Don't do anything too strenuous. i'll keep you in my prayers ;)

Hmmm seems Doctors dont like giving out really strong pain killers any more unless your dieing lol.Iv had friends from long ago come up with much stronger pain meds then the Doctor.Its pretty bad when you have to turn to the streets to get pain reliefe,thank you for your prayers.

Turns out there going back to the gall badder that's what the nuclear bomb Ex ray test was for,by the way i didn't blow up lol the guy doing it said as long as i didn't sneeze we would be OK.This was a test to see if the gall bladder is even working,they put the nuclear stuff in the to see the liver and gall bladder then they give you some thing else to force the gall badder to go into action.No action then the gall bladder is not working and they take it out,I'm hoping this is the case and be done with it.

You need a good GP, you can't use the ER as a GP. They get tons of people in there and some are trying to scam for drugs. Maybe they thought were you just trying to get high?

Yes it could be, i thought of that and i am note going for help there any more but the pain does get really bad weather they believe me or not.When they give me the pain shot and some fallow up pain meds its much better but they only give you three days worth of meds so bamm here comes the pain again.What go's through your mind when that happens? go back for more to make it feel better.

i'm thinking he was wanting a real answer, something that might actually help...

If they 'put the nuclear stuff in' then you are probably talking about the use of radioactive isotopes for imaging.

Relax man! They use these imaging techniques on people all the time - the risks are small and well known. 2nd hand smoke and freeway driving may be more worthy of fear than get some of that imaging done.

I was thinking the same thing. I've seen people in crazy amounts of pain over a simple GI problem.
