My gallbladder looks perfectly normal on ultrasound, and blood tests did not reflect expected changes as if there were trouble with gallbladder, so there is still no explanation for my intense pain starting 1-4 hours after eating anything with fat in it, nor why it's so much worse while lying down (and therefore, while I'm trying to sleep). Urine tests, xrays, and cat scans - as done when I went to the ER over a week ago - showed nothing, and it's not as if it feels like a kidney stone or UTI anyway.
Nurse practitioner wants me to remain on my current fatfree diet for a couple weeks (she initially kept saying 'low fat', but I can't eat _any_, really), then try to add stuff back in. If the pain comes back when I do that, to call her back, and she'll make me an appointment with general surgery (although I don't know what the goal of that might be, if there is no idea what's going on!).
Severely frustrated, me.
