Thank you all. I say I’m likely not a candidate for surgery because I’m having sacral spine pain that seems to be compressing my spine, causing me to have loss of sensation in my legs at times. This has progressed the past week. I begged for further testing prior to GB removal bc testing showed a blockage and I was itching like crazy but docs felt it was gallstones, even though zero ever showed up on scans. I’m having a MRCP in the morning and MRI of the spine the following day so I feel the big reveal will be this week. I’ve been working on getting to this point for 3 months and now that it’s here, I’m filled with so much fear and anxiety. I will update once I get results.
Hi. I’m 37 yo mother of 3 and facing a diagnosis of CC. I am in KY. Vanderbilt and Barnes Jewish are within driving distance for an initial consult but willing to travel to any location by flight. I am trying to get a game plan together (or 2 for that matter) so that I can get moving in some direction if this is my diagnosis. So my question is: how do you determine where to go? Of course, I hope that surgery is an option but assume it’s probably not in my case due to my symptoms and that it has taken 3+ months and gallbladder surgery for my doctors to look further. Thanks in advance!
