I think I am having gallbladder problems but I am only 3 1/2 weeks out from surgery.....



Recommended Posts

1. Is this possible?

2. Should I call my surgeon?

3. Am I just a big baby?

I'm not having attacks yet but I have this stitch in my side that showed up a few days before Christmas. I was actually feeling really good up until that point. Now I don't know what it is or if I should be concerned about this nagging pain?

I'd call. Better to be safe, imo.

It’s always best to check with your Dr when you have unexplained pain

Possible? Yes. Likely? Prolly not. From what I understand the pain from a gallbladder is excruciating! You'd be in WAY more pain than you say you are.

My gallbladder attacks felt like heart attacks then travelled to my stomach then under my ribs to my back. After it would feel Like I threw my back out. I was told that was a typical attack and I had ten of them. You may have inadvertently pulled a muscle in your side, could be gas or a few other things but best bet is to check in with your doctor who will probably run some blood tests and maybe a CAT scan to be sure. Keep us posted!
