My sister had that and ended up having hers removed. That was almost 2 years ago and she is just now starting to eat salad. No spicy, no tomatoes, no citrus. She is a HUGE OJ drinker. She lost a lot of weight (she didn't need to) because she had to be on the BRAT diet for a long time.0

I had mine removed about 13 years ago. The experience you described brought back some bad memories. You need to get it removed. I was in denial for about four months when the symptoms hit because the first doctor I went to simply said I had ulcers and to stay away from spicy food. However, the pains got worse until I could barely eat. I lost 25 pounds in aout 3 months. My mom finally dragged me to a doctor and he diagnosed me with gall stones in a second before the ultrasound confirmed it. He said if I waited another day longer I could have been in serious trouble. I did change my diet for the better for about a year after the surgery but then resorted back to my favorites, meats, spicy food, alcohol. I cannot say that removing the gall stones affected my ability to eat any type of food. Good luck. I really do feel for you.0

Heart attack heartburn I had it. 2 attacks in 2 weeks. Have been fine for over 6 years. Gallbladder still not removed. Other things can cause an attack I believe. Doctor said certain infections can cause a flareup? No problems for me after initial 2 flare ups though.0

I had my gallbladder out when I was 23, 6 years ago. I had to have it out b/c it was not working properly and I was in alot of pain, I got heartburn all the time and was sick to my stomach all the time and couldn't keep anything down. It was the best thing I ever had done.0

DEFINITELY, talk to a doctor again...I know gallstones can lead to some EXTREMELY serious life threatening stuff, but not sure what the diff is between that and one that's inflamed.
Had mine out a couple years ago and I heard all sorts of stuff, YOU'LL GAIN WEIGHT, YOU'LL never be able to eat spicy food again etc. Wasn't true for me at all, but it can be scary so I feel for ya! Hope it all works! I'm sure its different for everyone....0 -
I had that problem back in july of 04. The dr. removed my gall bladder and 21 gall stones. I was able to keep my stones. My youngest daughter took one to school for her bio class. Got an A for her report. Having gall bladder is no fun. Mine took away all engery and I was very sick with it. Have it taken care of as soon as possible. I still am not able to eat anything that has seeds. The up side is that I did lose 25 pounds and my waist and stomach went down 5 inches.0

I have never had them however I know of several people who have. If it is gallstones or kidney stones for anyone who is interested. There is a tea that breaks them up. My brother in law has issues with them and drinks the tea and takes care of it pretty quickly.

I had mine taken out about 7 years ago b/c mine was inflamed and had a few stones. I'm one of the few who had it worse when it was out! (they said it's only 2% who have the side effects that I had). It took a few years before I could eat semi normal. I will always be the girl, now, who has to make sure there is a bathroom around too!! :blushing: I would deffinately get a few opions before you do anything! I didn't get one...and really wish I did. Now I've heard there are a lot more options. Don't want to scare ya, just want to make sure you do the best thing you can for YOU0
