This solves many, many questions for me. December 23, 2009 my perfectly healthy 17 year old child had her gallbladder removed. She was a top athlete and slated to go to a division 1 college to play vball on full scholarship and began to have abdominal pain, vomiting, nausea and began to loose a rapid amount of weight. She lost 32 lbs by the time all was said and done.
She took yaz from May 09 to August 09 and began to have abdominal pains for three months prior to removal. She spent 9 days in the hospital, underwent MANY painful tests, missed school, had to stop playing vball and lost every bit of muscle mass she had built up as a top vball player. After 9 day hospital stay they could find nothing wrong so I took her to a surgeon convinced it was her gallbladder. 2 days later she was in surgery. Surgeon said gallbladder had been inflammed and bad for a while ( approx 6 months and time period she was on Yaz) and when he took it out the ducts began to spill out “sludge” that he had to clean out. Pathology report found that gallbladder had chronic inflammation.
While on yaz she kept having stomach pains, nausea, would vomit so we switched her to another. Before herr surgery and about 2 weeks before gallbladder was removed she began to urinate brown sludge that stopped the day her gallbladder was removed.
During her hospital stay she saw numerous specialists and noone could come up with a reason behind why a healthy, thriving 17 year old was having such issues and when gallbladder was determined to be the problem the doctors were all stumped as to WHY a 17 year old had to have it removed and WHY it went bad.
