    johnette.

    yes i have or rather i do .

    at least i hope i think thats what the pain i get may be .

    i certainly hope thats what it is anyway.

    and its way worse when im driveing , its a sharp stabbing pain kinda like a very bad stitch

    but i did a very gangreenous gallbladder and adhesions were noted that were cut down with sharps what ever that means.

    i had my emergency surgery coming up 15 months ago.

    whats your experience then ?

      Hi, I had my gallbladder removed almost 4 months ago. The pain started 3 weeks ago and it is constant and is very painful. The pain is on my right side under my ribs and goes across my abdomen and under my left ribs at times also. I've had tests done and all are coming back normal. It was suggested that it could be adhesions. Where is your pain and is it constant? How long have you been having the pain?
