Question 3

Accepted Answer

Possible next steps: A permanently blocked bile duct is a clinically unacceptable alternative, so your choices include: 1) second attempt at ERCP by someone with greater experience/success rate than your first physician (specialty or academic referral?); 2) percutaneous drainage by an interventional radiologist; 3) surgical drainage (many operative options); 4) frank discussion with your first GI doc--pls start here.

Question 4

what does crenated & dysmorphic red blood cells in urine mean?

It is not painful: Usually a topical and a local anesthetic is used that provides profound numbness to the area.

Find a dentist who is skilled and experienced in the use of soft tissue lasers.
