Just wondering if anyone else has similar side effects ... I have had Gall Bladder symptoms but all the tests say my gall bladder is working well. (Blood, sono and MRI with contrast) It all started a few weeks after the mirena was inserted. Extremely Severe pain in my right side that last for 8 to 12 hrs. Seems to feel slightly better with a few crackers (unlike gall bladder) and seems to move lower as it gets better (also unlike gall bladder). It does not move around to my back like gall bladder should or usually does. Gall bladder made sense since I have the risk factors ( women over 30, just had a baby etc) Anyway, Anyone else having the right side pain? Thanks!

You may be passing gallstones, which would explain why your tests are coming back saying that your gallbladder is working. I had problems with my gallbladder for years (passing gallstones) but everytime the er sent me down to nuclear medicine, the gallstone had passed, and nothing showed up on the test. After the birth of my second child, the problems intensified and after several er visits showed stones (not stuck, but in the gallbladder) they decided to remove it. A biopsy later showed that there were multiple problems with the gallbladder and the removal was inevitable. Good luck!!
