acute abdomen (part 2)



alhamdulillah, my husband is well and pain-free for the past few days....i am just so scared when he was to have the pain again...!! we hate to go through all the hassle at the emergency department....(we cannot store all medications at home, especially the injections type, even though we are doctors..)


my hubby went to work early today as he has to queue to get his ultrasound abdomen done...at 11 am, he called me at work telling me that he is confirmed to have multiple calculi (stones) in his gallbladder...that causes him to have the pain when the calculi got stuck at the biliary tree....


now we already know the diagnosis....so, i referred him to a hepatobilary surgeon and scheduled for an appointment within these few days....


probably he needs an operation soon (laparoscopic cholecystectomy) to remove his gallbladder which contains the calculi, because he experiences all the pain....hopefully he'll get it done before his exam....in the meanwhile, he is more careful in selecting his food now...which is good!
