Does anyone have experience with the finding of "fundal adenomyomatosis" . "Mild wall thickening and punctate calcification of the gallbladder fundus which may represent fundal adenomyomatosis. The biliary tree is nondilated.

 

Thanks,

 

Colleen

Not sure I have the answer but don't mess with gallbladder issues my husband just got out of the Hosp. from gallbladder surgery they were supposed to do the Divinci surgery thru the belly button (1hole)  his gall bladder was un recognizable , so then they tried the laproscopic way, nope still couldn't recognize it. So they went in the good old fashioned way. What was supposed to be 1 1/2 hr. turned into a 5 hr. deal and a wake up in ICU. he was in ICU for 3 days and in the hosp. for 5. Finally home and just got his 30 staples out on Monday. All that thickening your talking about he had. His intestines were attached to his gallbladder also. He's lucky with all the infection he had he made it thru this. A friend of ours was telling us her grandfather passed away from the same thing. Nothing to mess with!

Hi Wendy, thanks for your reply.  

 

The previous scan I had of that region showed the gall bladder being completely normal.  time span was 7 months.  My Oncologist doesn't think it has anything to do with my cancer, so that's good.  Unfortunatlely,  Oncologists don't worry about anything unless it's connected to cancer.  I think I have an appointment coming up with my GP and I'll show the scan info to him.  I want to be knowledgeable on the subject so he can't gloss over anything on me.

Sorry, Colleen, I checked my hospital records and other than ejection rate did not find anything else. The surgeon told me verbally that it was "hot" meaning infected. Other family members were told that their gallbladders were damaged, but I do not recall them mentioning wall thickness. In any case, no one in my family ever had their gallbladders removed based on standard tests other than the HIDA showing ejection rates or infection. It is a curse and I think it is related to celiac disease, but that is just my opinion since most will not get tested for celiac disease!!!

One Aunt just went gluten-free per the advice of her chiropractor and found relief. Her daughter had an endo only without blood test or biopsy, but went gluten-free because her mom had found relief. Both are doing great except for accidental glutenings. Both had the GBs removed too.

Curse = 6 out of seven siblings, oldest five grandchildren had surgery to date.

Thanks for your reply.  As far as I know, no one in Family has had any gall bladder issues.  But then again, no one has cancer...lol.  I'm the Special one in the Family I guess.   I understand the gall bladder works with the Immune System?  Is that correct?

It is a reservoir for bile, but it can be attacked by your immune system. I suppose it could have immune properties as well but that is beyond my scope of knowledge.

Here is a good article:

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @DebJ14, You said "husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation."   I don't think black seed oil is lowering inflammation.  It's lowering blood glucose levels. Black cumin seed lowers blood glucose levels.  There's a connection between high blood glucose levels and Afib.    Has your husband been checked for diabetes?   Must Read: Associations of high-normal blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose with atrial fibrillation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36750354/

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      Healthy Omega Three fats.  Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat.   Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel.  Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body.  Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.  Thiamine mononitrate is relatively unusable in the body.  So a high carb diet can further decrease thiamine stores in the body.  Insufficient thiamine in the body causes the body to burn body fat and muscle for fuel, so weight loss and muscle wasting occurs.  Those extra carbohydrates can lead to Candida (often confused with mold toxicity) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).   Losing weight quickly is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Muscle wasting is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  I lost sixty pounds in a month.   Having difficulty putting weight on and keeping it on is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.   The AIP diet works because it eliminates all grains and grasses, rice, quinoa, all the carbs.  Without the carbs, the Candida and SIBO get starved and die off.  Easy way to change your microbiome is to change what you feed it.  With the rowdy neighbors gone, the intestine can heal and absorb more nutrients.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so if you don't need them, they can be gotten rid of easily.   Night shades are excluded on the AIP diet.  Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are not allowed on the AIP diet.  They contain alkaloids that promote "a leaky gut".  Benfotiamine can help here. Sweet potatoes are avoided because they contain thiaminases, chemicals that break thiamine so that the body cannot use it.   The AIP diet has helped me.

      Is this celiac?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The reaction one gets when they get glutened varies a lot from person to person.  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      A gluten ingestion can last for many months.  Many years ago there was a celiac conference in Fl.  Everyone there got contaminated with some having difficulty 6 months to recover.  It will hit your Lympatic system and spread  through the body and effect your nevous system as well. Most times when I get glutened it is from a prescription med that wasn't checked close enough.  the Pharmacuticals change vendors all the time.
