| Gallbladder pain is almost always over the gallbladder - on the right. Pain usually starts several hours (sometimes up to 4) after eating. Sounds more like reflux to me. Or an ulcer, perhaps. Best check with your GP asap if the pain is happening a lot.
I know it is not always easy, but try avoiding fat and switch to 6 small fairly bland meals, if you are not already doing so until you see that doctor. | |

| No idea, sorry! But good luck, and I'm glad you're already booked in to see the doc about it. | |

| Hello all: I've been away for a while. Everything has been great. However, lately I've been having an intense cramp-like pain just below the sternum. I'm pretty sure it is gallbladder problems. It kicks in after eating anything that has any iota of fat in it. It is an intense pain across the diaphragm.
I read up on gallbladder pain and it always mentions lateralized pain. Do we sleevers experience the pain differently?
What are you stories about gall bladder issues?
//I am going to see a doctor about it in October. | |
