I had my HIDA Scan yesterday and it went great! The test came back normal so no surgery needed! A HIDA Scan tests how your gallbladder functions. Thanks for coming along to the hospital!
I had a hida scan done about 6 years ago and although the test was normal, the doctor felt that the pain and nausea I was constantly having was GB attacks. Although I did have trouble with diarrhea for several months after my GB removal, I felt so much better and am now glad it's out. No more of those terrible painful attacks. I hope you're feeling better sweet girl. Thanks for taking us along with you!
B B same here! All my tests came back normal but I was having all the pain of gallbladder attacks. Got it removed and all better! 😊
I have the test next week. My ultrasound showed thickening of the GB they want to see more for when it's removed. I pretty much have pain all the time and no appetite weight loss.
I get it girl!! I lost about 30lbs in 3 weeks. I could eat apple slices, white bread, red pasta sauce, and Chex mix haha
My pain is only after drinking beer, dr thinks it’s gallbladder so I gotta do this test but I don’t think it is, it doesn’t seem the same as what u and everyone else describes.. uggh I hate drs & not knowing with the fear of Misdiagnosis
@@elisagaydosik768 So even though your hida scan came back normal, the doctor removed your gallbladder? Because the same thing is happening to me, all my tests come back normal but the doctor thinks it's my gallbladder in the area where it hurts and he wants to do a surgery, it scares me
Oh I’m so happy your test came back normal!! Love you so much Mickey. I hope the positivity continues!! 😍☺️
Mickey glad you didn't get sick or have pain with the scan. That's a good sign!!
Mine never emtied even with the injection and i was throwing up. I had function of 11%
Jessica Porter mine was also only working at 11% (gall bladder)
How terrible was the test? Im scared as hell I gotta get it done this week.. I’m afraid of the worse
Hi, Mickey. I had a HIDA scan, and I did have cramping pain during the injection portion of the scan but it wasn't nearly as severe as the pain attacks that I was having. My ejection fraction was 11% but the ultrasound of my gallbladder showed no stones, so I was diagnosed with biliary dyskinesia. I also have gastroparesis, so I'm concerned that something is slowing all of my digestive organs. I've also been having lower right quadrant abdominal pain for almost 3 years now. My gastroenterologist did recommend that I have the gallbladder removed, so I met with a surgeon who is experienced in the most minimally invasive procedures because I have already had problems with painful peritoneal adhesions forming after surgery (the adhesions themselves are not painful, but rather the things that they connect together that should not be attached to one another).
The gallbladder surgeon told me that gallbladder surgery has a pretty high success rate when stones are present, but the success rate drops in cases of biliary dyskinesia to 75 - 80%. He wouldn't promise any reduction in my nausea and really couldn't promise how much of my pain was related to my gallbladder since I have gastroparesis which also causes nausea, vomiting, bloating and severe gastric pain. I did have the surgery on June 14, 2018, and took the opportunity to have a couple of other surgeons present to remove any newly formed adhesions and pockets of endometriosis. I've had a rough time recovering but I'm finally starting to feel better. As you know, though, since you have gastroparesis, I'm afraid to be too sure of that based on just a few good days in a row, but I'm almost back up to my pre-surgery weight. I had to change nausea medications, and I had some pretty rough side effects and lots of nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, so my weight dropped as low as 103 lbs. I'm back up to 108 and my pre-surgery weight was 110. It's still not enough for a 5'7" woman, but I do still have gastroparesis. I have been able to eat more over the past week or two, so the surgery has definitely helped. I'm in the phase where I'm counting my blessings and not my problems but I don't want to get my hopes up too high just yet. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Gentle hugs and Happy Gastroparesis Awareness Month ! :)
Thanks for sharing this, I think I have the same problem
I want to ask you, what about now? Do you still have pain after removing the gallbladder? And do you face problems now?
I was SO excited when I saw on insta you posted this! Keep going strong girl! We're zebra strong! Praying for you daily!
That is awesome that your test came out great. YYYAAYYYY!!!! I had a HIDA scan when I was 12. My gallbladder only worked 2% and it was very painful. They had to take it out. Glad it was not painful for you.
judy rotunno did you have weight loss and loss of appetite?
Danyelle Jones yes I did. I felt so sick to my stomach a lot so I would not eat. I lost a lot of weight at that time. When I got my gallbladder out, it helped a lot with the nausea and pain. Unfortunately for me the loss of appetite was not just caused by my gallbladder not working.
judy rotunno I am starting to suspect my gallbladder isn't the problem. The first scan showed enlarged gallbladder so on Monday I have another scan to see what's causing that if it isn't stones.
Danyelle Jones I hope you figure it out. I know how tough it is not knowing. It took many years for me to figure out something that worked for me. I am still working on it too. Good luck with your scan.

HIDA scan and gallbladder removable it’s totally unnecessary if MRCP and ultrasound says negative of anything
If you do liver function blood test ,that will confirm if you have any blocked bilirubin ducts which will cose you problems with food digestion .
Blocked bilirubin ducts happens not only by stones in gallbladder even when bacteria scare tissue by giving signals to the valve not to open and your blood start becoming toxic.
I had them both HIDA and gallbladder removed and still same symptoms,..
i believe its bacteria in the liver which cose liver not to work properly
Even though everything comes normal I really do believe it’s bacteria
Bacteria can scare tissue and cose inflammation ,.bad food can accelerate the damage by giving more room to bacteria to expand
Immune system drops and everything start to not work properly
To get to the root of the problem liver and gallbladder need MRCP +CT scan ,biopsy and laparoscopic visual examination for the liver if gallbladder it’s ok
If the problem it’s confirmed ,.more studies need to be done how blood is infected and where to look to identify the problem with lees invasion
Obviously digestion it’s connected with liver,..when endoscopy from stomach it’s ok
Liver and gallbladder gone be the problem
So by doing them tests including blood test i’m sure diagnose will come a long
A lot of specialists work like robots,..for them you are a number
I’m not saying all but 30% of them are in a wrong job
I wish did study to be a doctor,..to help myself and others
I’m so frustrated with today doctor
Thank you for filming this Mickey! I have a HIDA scan tomorrow and this makes me feel so much better!!
Ur a strong young lady love the up beat attitude about ur situation. Keep smiling baby girl.
Woohoo! Glad you had a normal HIDA Scan. I absolutely hated that test, it made me so sick during and afterwards. But it did its job....my gallbladder wasn't working, and had to come out
Sick how??
Hi Mickey, I just had this done 3 days ago too actually. When they injected the meds in me, I did felt cramping and some upper stomach pains with it but it did went away. Hope your test comes back Good as well as I'm hoping for better results👍👍🙂
Lady Great A

My HIDA scan showed hypertrophic Gallbladder with very low function and so I had it removed on my 16th Birthday! =/ I am so glad yours is normal. I didn't get to bring anything into the scan room at all. Cool you could have your phone and camera!

Man, I have no idea how you laid there for that long. I would have been in soooo much pain not just from the med being pushed but from my back laying there for that long. I hope your scan is good! Hope you're well!

Thank God for your time and video. You really helped me feel better about the test. Precious person to help people with your journey especially when you might not feel the best and you still help people God bless you and I'll be praying for you
Yay another awesome vid from mickey
I've never heard of your channel (honestly I don't really watch RUclips), but I am getting a HIDA scan on Friday and this made me less worried about it! Also, I used to have a a feeding tube for about 10?ish years, so it was really cool to see that you had one too :)
What was your results
I had a HIDA scan this morning. It really wasn't too bad, just a bit boring! :)
What did they inject? I’m having it tomorrow and don’t know what expect. Did they make a hole on your chest?
@@KS-wk6uk They'll give you some drugs and a radioactive substance through an IV in your arm. The radioactive substance lets them observe your gallbladder filling up and draining. You basically just have to lay in bed under a machine for 90 minutes.
@He_Who_Orders_My_Steps 1977 It's been a while now since I've had the test, but I don't think the drugs made me feel any different.
@@desertboxturtle5493How are you now?? I am afraid that they will inject me with the radioactive agent because of the consequences it may cause later.
I’m 14 and getting a HIDA scab done sometime in a couple of weeks and I’m SUPER scared because I don’t want to go through pain or being sick.
how did it go??
Having this tomorrow and I’m terrified because I hate laying still like that for that long haha.
How did it go?
I have EDS as well and I also have fibromyalgia scoliosis bursitis and chronic fatigued syndrome. You inspire me in so many ways. I’m always in pain it’s not fun being in pain 24/7
Your amazing mickey! You go girl! Love you x
Thank you for sharing your story! Sending many hugs to you for being so strong
Aww yay so glad it came back normal n it was easy!!! I too have heard they can be super painful so that's great!!
Btw your makeup looks so pretty!! 💜
ahh nervous but you made it better! I go in for my scan tomorrow morning thank goodness because its been a crazy past few days with ER trip and docs >.< I am happy everything went well for you
hd my gallbladder taken out last year. it was the worst! for me i was in pain for a couple months constantly before it gott aken out. i had to do this scan and i had bad stomach pains when they injected the stuff to see if my gallbladder was working. found out mine was only working less than 10%. i got a call by that afternoon, the same day i had the scan done, telling me my results and saying they were sending me to a surgeon to get it removed
Glad your test came back alright ! Love you and you’re so inspiring 💓💓💓💓💓
So happy the test went well and was normal!
I love your videos!! I just had an hEDS update today - I’m having spinal surgery...Yay. Not. (I’m so 90s.) My hEDS has done a number on my spine and I knew that spinal surgery someday and someday has come. So, in the next few months, I’ll be going under the knife and I’ll be getting MORE hardware in my body. I have titanium in my face and stomach so lets add some to my spine and I’ll still get patted down on my knee when I go through the airport detectors where I’ve never had surgery!
The Age of Fabulous I hope it goes well for you
I have appointment Tomorrow at 7:30 at Tupelo Mississippi at the main hospital because I been having Gallblader problem about 8 months
I had this scan but on my kidneys just a couple days ago 😂❤️ love you
I’m so sorry that you had to Waite an hour. How have you been friend. We love you and God Bless. I’m finally getting a service dog finally please pray that she quits getting sick she going on 7months old.
I had one of those scans done before wasn't aloud to be on my phone or do anything but lay there (for 2 straight hours) you are lucky
Love the video Mickey!! So glad your scan went well :))
You are always soo positive! I love your videos!!
i just had my hida scan it was so boring in the scan. I only got to listen to music though. I had to drink a milkshake though to get mine instead of an infusion. Would of definitely preferred the IV. I get my results today.
I love your channel and that your happy no matter what
I enjoy watching your videos. I have POTS also and live in the same state as you.
We have the same phone case!
And popsocket actually also!😂
Glad everything came back normal! Also can we just take a minute to talk about your makeup!😍 your makeup is amazing. How do you find your foundation shade. I try and it's always to light or to dark!❤️ much love from Illinois
Heyy get well soon , Love & Hope from India 🎉💐💐💐
I am having gallbladder removal surgery on March 29 2024, I'm so scared of what is going on I'm in so much pain all the time,plus I've got stage 3 colon cancer
I’ve had them all. I got gallstones with a stricture in my biliary duct.
Glad to see ur doing ok ive been very sick ive had a heatstroke so I'm pretty sick this Oklahoma weather ain't fun just tryn to stay cool havnt been able to eat for a few days now so but I feel a lil better than I did been taking Advil and wat not so yea this has been my week lol
I had one done and they had a screen I could watch. the tech kept telling me it’s going to light up like a light bulb.....it never did so I had emergency surgery that day.
Oh no!
That’s my fear!
I’m watching this because I may have to go for a HIDA scan because my gallbladder is not working correctly and I was in the hospital Saturday for it. Just wanted to see what I was getting into with this
A
How was it
Hida scans are the worst!!! It’s so boring. I fell asleep during mine 😂I had one about a month ago,and it came back normal which is good. I’ve still been having trouble with my health but it’s okay :)
I’m getting one soon! Really nervous about it tho
Its a really easy test! It sometimes causes cramping and nausea but those don't last long if they do happen. Don't be nervous! Its a very easy but boring test 😂
Your lashes look so good in this video😍
I was watching this when I had mine done
You are so inspiring to me!!! You make me want to be like you!❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have a gallbladder/liver scan in a few weeks. Am freaking out. Needles make me faint...welll almost.
When you showed yourself in the scanner at first I thought you were standing; I was like that's kinda weird.
May I ask, is there a special reason behind you wearing those white crocs/shoes? Here these are THE classic nurse/hospital footwear👩⚕️
I had this scan a few months ago. Not awful but pretty boring.
True! It is very boring!
Yay yes i get scans with no cobtrast..i get dizzy but thats it but i do upright or elevated lol
Have a great day
I have no Gallbladder anymore. They had to take mine a few years ago.
How are it doing without it?
I’m dreading having this done 😖
You are absolutely adorable 💜💜
I’m getting one done next week, any advice? Also could you listen to music/use your phone the entire time?
Im glad this video is up because i have to have one and i have alot of stomach issues because i have IBS so they have to see if its the galbladder but i have nausea thats bad as well so im still really nervous and scared. Im just worried why they say it takes 3 hours for mine...
I posted a video explaining eds hypermobile type and how it’s affecting kids now because my daughter has been diagnosed with it at 9. Please help share this video so we can bring awareness to eds and how it’s affecting children now. Thanks
i have the same phone. phone case and similar popsocket
Hey Mickey I LOVE your eyelashes!!! what mascara do you use? I am so inspired by the awareness you are spreading for all your ilnesses. I have a genetic neromuscular disease called Friedreich's Ataxia.I just started a youtube channel talking about life with a disability even though I don't like that word very much, but I was wondering if you have any tips for starting out. Thanks a bunch!!!:)
3days back complete my hida scan finds gallbladder problems
Yay new video! “I think everything looked fine but I’m not a doctor.” Also me after every test. P.S., it’s your fav rapper, Queasy🤮
I probably mist it, but why do you wear that mouth cap??? Is it because you have to be careful with bacteria that you don't get sick???? Hugs from the Netherlands 😘😘😘
I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome which is an allergy disorder. Without my mask outside I go into random Anaphylactic episodes. The filtered mask keeps me breathing outside. Good question!
Life with Stripes thank you for your reply of my question. Do you have to wear it all the time if you go outside??? Or only if you go to the hospital. I love your positivity and how you cope with your illnesses and love watching you channel. I'am a lot older than you and I have posttraumatic distrophia due a terrible accident that I had in 2009. I'am in pain 24/7 and I have to take morphine and other heavy painkillers, so I can relate a little bit with you. I try to be as positive as I can be, because I don't want my illnes to take over my live. Hugs from me.
Did they tell you that you need someone to drive you home? My Dr said I need a driver just wondering if they give you medication that makes you woozy? I had an endoscopy, a gulbladder ultrasound and blood drawn all came back normal. Any advice?
What are some symptoms you have had for this procedure to be done ?
Your the best love you so so so very much your so so so so so so so so amazing
I have to have this test done on Tuesday. Am I allowed to have my phone with me??
Any vomiting or nausea after the procedure?? I'm having one soon and the last 3 or 4 months I've been having really terrible nausea and cannot eat much. They did an endoscopy....that was fun and blood tests and everyone. It's just this one test I'm afraid of
I_Say_What_Others_Want_To_But_Wont 1977 how did your scans go? Hope all is well

@@tobiernotobie Hi I'm replying on my new account lol. It went fine and I was honestly nervous for nothing. They didn't give me any medication as far as I remember and it was mostly just laying there bored while they did the scan.
@JPepperL I'm glad it went good. Thank you!
