sounds like classic signs of the gall bladder issues!!!! Can't hurt to go to your doctor and have then do an ultrasound on yours!!! Heavy greasy foods makes your GB work harder so they will trigger more pain than "lighter" foods. Once the GB goes bad there's NO way to fix it! Dee Dee

yup Laura, its gall bladder gone bad! And I'm a mom x3 so I am ALWAYS right Seriously, like Dee Dee said, when the gall bladder starts to go its higher fat foods that will trigger an attack, thats why pasta and soup didn't bother you, low fat. I know you already know this, but rapid weightloss almost guarantees gall bladder issues. While I was waiting for my surgery date to have mine removed, (many years ago) the doc had me on a no fat diet and an anti spasmodic so the GB wouldn't spasm and help control my pain (which was on my left side, they called it deferred pain) You dont want to wait too long to have it checked. Stones can leave the gallbladder and lodge in your bile ducts which is a MAJOR complication. Good luck Laura, let us know what doc says. Barb

I agree with Mom, Girlfriend! Getting that bad baby out sooner will be much better than later! Keep us updating on how you are feeling. Love ya' Becky

Mine hurts right in my pouch area. Nothing helps except oxycodone. I have lots left over but I probably can't do lunch until Friday and I'm sure you don't wanna wait that long. Your Dr will probably send you for an ultrasound of it. if it keeps up, go to the ER.
