Gallbladder problem with episodes of shaking all over with no fever or temperature.
Hello! I've been diagnosed with multiple gallstones and am awaiting to see a gallbladder specialist.My symptoms are abdominal bloating,terrible sore right shoulder(which when sore brings on nausea) and terrible nausea. The question I need some guidance on which is causing me great distress,is to do with me also having these horrific shaking and aching episodes all over my body but esp behind my knees and biceps. For example,I took a Canestan tablet and they brought on this awful ful like shaking do,took me a 2-3wks to regain full strength.I then took a Metrocloprimide tablet for the gallbladder sickness and that gave me an horrendous reaction.I had fever like symptoms without getting temperature...I couldn't stop this shaking and then it dies off slowly. Behind my knees were that sore that I couldn't lie down.
I went to my GP and he ruled out H.Pylori via a sample(before I found the gallstones).He then thought I had a gallbladder infection and the remaining aches from this last Metoclompride via taking ciprofloxacin seemed to be helping. Last week he gave me Erythromicin to try cos I wasn't fully right, and I HAD THIS HORRIFIC REACTION TO IT.The nausea,shakes and aches were horrendous.I went to A+E and have only now just got out. It's saturday now and I still don't feel like eating.I'm just concerned I have 2 seperate problems here when I want my gallbladder to be it all. A further scan proved my gallbladder is diseased and there was a thickening of the wall of it. My massive anxiety however is that nobody,none of the doctors could understand this awful flu like shakes and aches...and knee soreness. I asked if it could be an infection and they said you dont have a temperature so I'm scared this aches and shakes aren't to do with that.As I write this,the aches and shakes aren't as bad as they were but I defo still have them.
My blood tests at the hossie didn't show anything but the one at my GP's prior did show I have bile going into my blood but the hospital thought nothing about this when I asked.I'm scared to try any tablet in case this reaction occurs. Not sure my GPs know what it is and when i see my Gallbladder Specialist in a week or 2,i greatly worried he'll say he's never heard of it.Oh and I had slight ketones in my urine being a diabetic but a nurse said she didn't think it was that!
Worried it could be pancreatic infection(being a diabetic),worried it's a liver issue.....Epstein Bar Virus? This is not cos I'm anxious either,I defo have a problem here but worried like I say,it's not all gallstone/bladder related. Just feel like no one is listening to me and worries me that a few docs at the hossie didn't seem to know it.Can u have a gallbladder infection without a high temperature? Could it be ME even?
Any reassuring ideas and info would be great!

gall bladder / immune system
About 3 years ago I had my Gall-bladder removed by keyhole surgery; my tummy button wouldn't heal properly and I needed 3 courses of Flocloxacillin. One year later I took Pneumonia and was diagnosed with Bronchieatasis, 6 months later I contacted the Noro Virus and lost 6 lbs in a week. Recently I had a Cuticle infection and was told by a Locum doctor that it was called Paronychia which was the result of a Staph infection which had entered my blood stream. Now the antibiotics which worked well for me in the past don't anymore - or have such extreme side-effects that I am forced to stop taking them eg. my sinuses become inflamed and flow continuously. Could the removal of my Gall-bladder have affected my immune system or it is likely that I have picked up an infection during my initial surgery. I am a 65 year old female who although being diagnosed with mild M.S. 17 years ago it has never caused me any problems.
