it is pain that occurs after you eat. It can radiate to you back. Any pain should be reported to your doctor.

Gallbladder pain usually originates from the right side just below your ribs. My worst attack felt like hard labor contractions. Severe pain, starting from the right and radiating around my whole midsection around to my back. The pain came in continuous waves and my attack lasted about seven hours. They usually do an ultrasound to diagnose gallstones. They may also do blood work. My surgeon said if you have one attack you will have more so they take it out. My daughter put off having her gallbladder out till she graduated from URI. The last six weeks before graduation she had attacks daily ranging from bad to severe. I don't know how she lasted that long.

Both my daughters and I had our gallbladders removed. Gallbladder surgery is the most common surgery in the world.

OMG! Had trapped gas last night. I didn't know which end it was going to come out of. I just wanted to curl up into a very small ball and make it all go away. Grrrrr!
