Stomach Issues..don't know what's going on (gallbladder, pregnant, infection)

[Leilani Vasquez]

Every morning I've been waking up very nauseous. I'm not pregnant either. I've been extremely sick to my stomach. It seems that if I do throw up, it's a lot of acid. I feel full for some reason, and continue to feel this way until the remainder of the morning.

Go to your doctor. A similar thing happened to me. I waited until it got worse and worse, until I was finally throwing up blood before I went to see a doctor and it turned out to be a very serious gallbladder infection.

When you find out what's happening, report back. My hubby had a similar experience---had tests galore---nothing was ever found out!
I'd be interested to know what they find with you! Good luck!

I have an appointment to see my doctor on Thursday. I've had a lot of indigestion lately, but it's more noticeable in the morning. Depending on what I eat I get a "full" feeling. I googled gallbladder infection and don't think I have any of the symptoms that the site listed.

I had similar symptoms and it turned out I had bleeding ulcers. If you feel much worse tell your doctor he needs to see you right away and not two days from now.

Try looking up Gerd to see if that sounds like it could be the cause.

Go to the doctor ASAP!!
and get a consult/referral for Gastroenterology
they can do the required test and treat appropiately before it gets too serious, in the meantime, if the physician can't call you in some maintenance meds, Go to the Dollar store and get a bottle of Maalox or any simethicone liquid antacid, and a pack of zantac
take it and stay away from any caffeine, spicy ,fried food, go bland diet, until you get this resolved
You can go to another store, I just found it to be a little less costly buying these items from a Dollar General/Family Dollar store
I hope you get to feeling better real soon
In my prayers..

A check of your internal female areas should be done also. Hope everything gets better for you. I would for sure get things checked out, it's not fun feeling like that.

It was my gallbladder. Apparently it's full of stones. I have surgery scheduled for next week. They do it laprascopically (sp) now, so the procedure shouldn't be so bad.

Don't worry then. The surgery is a breeze and you'll probably go home the next day. Recovery isn't too bad. Just make sure you take extra care of yourself and don't overdo physical activity until the doctor gives you the ok. After this you'll find you probably can't eat rich, high fat foods like you might have in the past. Foods that are rich with a high fat content will go right through you, if you know what I mean. But, really, it's a good thing to eat a healthier diet anyway, isn't it? That's how I feel at least.
