I had blood drawn yesterday to check liver functions and such for gall bladder issues. Doc called this morning and said "nothing alarming" so I'm just wondering could it still be my gallbladder? I have an ultrasound on Monday and I'm stressing out cause I want to know if even the blood being normal could still be something wrong with my gallbladder?
Blake,
all my blood work came back good also , also when they did any ultrasound , it's when they did a MRI , it showed the gallstones.

If you had something wrong with your Gallbladder you would know it and get a lot of pain and vomiting..Ultra sound will pick up on any stones, if any.http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/Gallstones/Pages/Introduction.aspx
Yes, my blood work was normal too! The ultrasound found my gallstones, once that happens go get it removed if you have gallstones. It's the best choice I made. My Doc didn't hestite to get it removed ASAP!!!
