Trying to get more data. Two years ago I had my first gallbladder attacks. They were vey painful. Through a long process it was finally revealed I had stones and sludge. I was about to get surgery but my bilirubin was too high so they checked for clogged bile duct. I ended up going jaundice and they removed my stones from my bile duct.

Long story short, I kept my gallbladder but it wasn’t until a year later that I was told they cut my Sphincter of Oddi so now it’s always open.

I was doing really well with the right supplements (which liquified my bile) until my mother passed. With all the stress of that I’ve been struggling with uncomfortable pains (not overwhelming) that seem to feel like GERD and or Gastritis.

Has anyone on here gotten a ERCP and still have their gallbladder?
