A relative with Behcet's syndrome (an auto-immune disease) has gall stones causing her significant nausea. She is on methotrexate. After having been told previously that surgery couldn't be done, she has now been told she needs to schedule surgery so that the methotrexate can be discontinued about two weeks before [to allow her body to fight any potential infection]. She is with an HMO, and I am wondering if there is something out there for gall bladder problems equivalent to the movement disorders specialists for parkinson. Please reply to me directly rather than on list. Thank you, Miriam L. Denham, cg for Dale, 74, dx 1988 [log in to unmask] [log in to unmask]
