Has Anyone Had Their Gallbladder Out After PBC Diagnosis? Did It Go Well?
Thank you so much for response. I'm very nervous about surgery on 2-7. Hoping that some relief will come. I have biliary dyskenisia (sp).
Hi, Carla
I had my gallbladder out prior to PBC diagnosis. Iām taking Ursodiol my numbers have dropped, but I have occasional spikes of liver enzymes. Still have stomach issues at times. Plus, fatigue and itchy skin. I do my best to eat right, exercise when I can, and stay positive. I do work full time hours which can be hard at times. š

When I still had the pain, after some more blood work and liver biopsy, that's when I got diagnosed with PBC. I don't really notice a difference without it. Taking the Urso has gotten rid of the pain and brought my numbers down.

After gallbladder removal, they started medication, and their liver numbers improved. Outcomes can vary, so it's essential to discuss Show Full Answer
