Actigall?????

I take it, two a day. I have not had any 'symptoms' but I am pretty sure that the gall bladder is way down by the liver, and if it were acting up, that you would have a tummy ache not a chest ache (my unprofessional opinion) that reminds me, better go take mine, I forgot yesterday.

Actually all the reserach I've done and people I've spoken to refer to the pain being in the upper right abdomen, shoulder, and sometimes between shoulder blades. Thanks for letting me know the dosage on the meds :D

I googled.. (I love google) http://digestive.niddk.nih.gov/ddiseases/pubs/gallstones/index.htm What are the symptoms? Symptoms of gallstones are often called a gallstone "attack" because they occur suddenly. A typical attack can cause * steady pain in the upper abdomen that increases rapidly and lasts from 30 minutes to several hours * pain in the back between the shoulder blades * pain under the right shoulder * nausea or vomiting Gallstone attacks often follow fatty meals, and they may occur during the night. Other gallstone symptoms include * abdominal bloating * recurring intolerance of fatty foods * colic * belching * gas * indigestion People who also have the above and any of following symptoms should see a doctor right away: * chills * low-grade fever * yellowish color of the skin or whites of the eyes * clay-colored stools (wow, lots of information)

Hope you are feeling better! Yourgallbladder is right about were your ribs stop on the right side. Is that were you had your pain?

Yep thats it! Spoke to my surgeon's RN this a.m. I have an appt scheduled for 9/13 (Wed) to see the surgeon and discuss the best route to take. She said it DEFINATELY sounds like gallstones to her. Thanks for all the responses.!
