A member asked:

Hida: HIDA scan will tell you if you have cystic duct or common bile duct obstruction. Many people who have HIDA scan have a history of abdominal pain and abnormal ultrasound or CT showing gallstones. Vomiting is a nonspecific symptom. Do you have pain after eating? Do you have nausea, bloating? A gastric emptying study could tell if you are having gastric emptying problems.

Ge reflux: Symptom sounds more like gastroesophageal reflux than symptoms of gall bladder disease. You should consult physician for exam and possible therapy for gastroesophageal reflux to see if symptoms are alleviated.
