Biliary Dyskinesia
Biliary dyskinesia causes gallbladder pain and discomfort even when no gallstones are present. When the gallbladder does not empty properly, surgery may still help.
About biliary dyskinesia
Biliary dyskinesia happens when the gallbladder does not function or empty the way it should. This can cause upper abdominal pain, nausea, bloating, or discomfort after eating, even when imaging does not show stones.
When symptoms match gallbladder disease and testing shows the gallbladder is not working properly, removing it often relieves the problem. Dr. Talbert reviews your symptoms, test results, and options with you.

Yes. Some patients have gallbladder symptoms even when imaging does not show gallstones. In these cases, additional testing may be used to evaluate gallbladder function.
Surgery may be considered when symptoms match gallbladder disease and testing shows the gallbladder is not working properly. A surgeon can review the patient’s symptoms, test results, and treatment options.
