Frustrated by pain

I kept suffering attacks and they said that my gallbladder was clear.  My doctor finally ordered a CT scan and they saw my gallbladder was full of sludge.  I was admitted that day and had it out.  Just keep pushing.  Until then drink as much water as you can, and make sure you keep you fat low in your diet until it is fixed.  It tends to aggravate it.

Thank you.  I will push for the CT Scan.  I don't think fat is the problem, as I am a very boring eater and am sticking to the few things I know work and are very low in fat.  I will definitely try to up my water intake.  I try but am sure I don't get enough.

Yeah, I had gallbladder attacks, and then had it removed. Now, I'm having pain and nausea, with it radiating to the back. After seeing the surgeon, though, he has diagnosed "costochondritis" i.e. inflammation of the cartilage on the rib cage. Who knew that was even a thing? Anyways, exercise seems to have set off the last two attacks (thought I was going to throw up last night), so I'm taking it easy for a few days....
