ERCP endoscopy gallstones

[lentilsaregreat]

Hi can anyone give me any tips on how to get through this I have already had 2 failed endoscopy attempts 10 years ago for something else. I'm really terrified I just can swallow the tube again and I won't come with the 40 min procedure. it's under sedation again as were the others. thanks.

Just wondering what your recover was like after your ercp? I am still aching almost wo weeks in

Hi my recover from the ercp was fine. No problem at all, they removed some small stones from my bile duct. I had not discomfort afterwards. I had to wait another couple of weeks to have my gallbladder out, so I still had discomfort from that, and infact more stones had popped into my bile duct again by the time I had it out and they removed those too. Do you think your pain could be that your gallbladder needs to come out?
