Could Abdominal Discomfort Be Due To Inflamed Gallbladder?
I have URQ abdominal discomfort. Preliminary results of Abdominal U/S are negative for stones. I have Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism.......previously (4 years) ago via Endoscopy diagnosed with Gastritis and Acid Reflux. Do not take scripted meds for this as I have not been able to tolerate. Could it be my gallbladder, perhaps inflammed ?!?!

Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist.
RUQ pain can be due to Inflammed GB, Gastritis, Colonic disease, from liver.
With the information available I will suggest you to avoid tea, coffee, oily and spicy food. Also avoid citrus fruits. Among medications take a proton pump inhibitor like rabeprazole and a prokinetic agent like domperidone.
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you . Wish you a good health
